Service-Henry David Thoreau

Short Science Fiction Collection 041.Science Fiction is speculative literature that generally explores the consequences of ideas which are roughly consistent with nature and scientific method, but are not facts of the author’s contemporary world. The stories often represent philosophical thought experiments presented in entertaining ways. Protagonists typically “think” rather than “shoot” their way out of problems, but the definition is flexible because there are no limits on an author’s imagination.Featured on Walden - Henry David Thoreau.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

Earth's Enigmas by Charles G. D. Roberts.Most of the stories in this collection attempt to present one or another of those problems of life or nature to which, as it appears to many of us, there is no adequate solution within sight. Others are the almost literal transcript of dreams which seemed to me to have a coherency, completeness, and symbolic significance sufficiently marked to justify me in setting them down. The rest are scenes from that simple life of Canadian backwoods and tide-country with which my earlier years made me familiar.Featured on Walden - Henry David Thoreau.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

He also was a philosopher, abolitionist, anarchist, writer, poet, and a bit of a mystery. He is best known for his book 'Walden', and his essay on 'Civil Disobedience'. This early biography by Henry Salt is highly regarded by Thoreau scholars.Featured on Walden - Henry David Thoreau.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

On the Duty of Civil Disobedience (Version 2) by Henry David Thoreau.Civil Disobedience (Resistance to Civil Government) is an essay by American transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau that was first published in 1849. In it, Thoreau argues that individuals should not permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing such acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican–American War.Featured on Walden - Henry David Thoreau.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

Maine Woods by Henry David Thoreau.On August 31, 1846, twenty-nine-year-old Henry David Thoreau left his cabin on Walden Pond to undertake a railroad and steamboat journey to Bangor, Maine, from where he would venture with his Penobscot guide Joe Polis deep into the backwoods of Maine. This account of his expedition, some think, is a profounder exploration of the philosophical themes of the more famous "Walden" than is the latter book, at least revealing his fundamental perspectives in embryonic form. Of particular interest is his sympathetic and penetrating observation of the Indian nations of Maine, especially the Penobscot and Passamaquoddy.Featured on Walden - Henry David Thoreau.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

Poems of Nature by Henry David Thoreau.The fifty poems here brought together under the title ‘Poems of Nature’ are perhaps two-thirds of those which Thoreau preserved. Many of them were printed by him, in whole or in part, among his early contributions to Emerson’s Dial, or in his own two volumes, The Week and Walden, which were all that were issued in his lifetime. Others were given to Mr. Sanborn for publication, by Sophia Thoreau, the year after her brother’s death (several appeared in the Boston Commonwealth in 1863); or have been furnished from time to time by Mr. Blake, his literary executor.Featured on Walden - Henry David Thoreau.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.
