Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Nathaniel Hawthorne: How to Know Him What is more characteristic of old New England than a snow-storm? Whittier´s "Snow-Bound" is an epitome of the old home life. Emerson´s "Snow Storm" - "Announced by all the trumpets of the sky" - although bad meteorology, gives truly the wind-sculpture of the day after, out-of-doors, with its soft farm-contours on "stake, or tree, or door," on "coop or kennel," in the brilliant air. They mix an exquisite homeliness with the wintry beauty, both true to the soil. Hawthorne, in "Snow-Flakes," a slight sketch, describes the approach of the storm, as mere weather, with a loving and minute care that makes it a real overture to winter. The scene is atmospheric, and the air bites. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
