The First Publication of Thoreau's Last Manuscript! EXCEPTIONAL ILLUSTRATED EDITION of Thoreau's last classic naturalistic study. Tight, bright, clean. Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862) was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian. A leading transcendentalist, Thoreau is best known for his books Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers (1849), and his essay "Civil Disobedience" (originally published as "Resistance to Civil Government"), an argument for disobedience to an unjust state. A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers (1849) is ostensibly Thoreau's narrative of a boat trip from Concord, Massachusetts to Concord, New Hampshire, and back, that he took with his brother John in 1839. John died of tetanus in 1842 and Thoreau wrote the book, in part, as a tribute to his memory. Thoreau completed the first draft of his book at Walden Pond, so it has a close association with his other masterpiece. Thoreau's books, articles, essays, journals, and poetry amount to more than 20 volumes. Among his lasting contributions are his writings on natural history and philosophy, in which he anticipated the methods and findings of ecology and environmental history.--adapting Wikipedia.

Hardcover 208 pages, Illustrated. 27x21cm. English text. FINE. ISBN 9789464666984. Although the work of Belgian artist Constant Permeke (1886?1952) is generally classified as Expressionism, he explored a multitude of registers. From the very beginning of his career, Permeke gained widespread international recognition with recurring subjects such as domestic scenes and people engaged in everyday activities. His landscapes and seascapes exude a hushed, sometimes sublime warmth. For Permeke, art and life were closely linked. His oeuvre shimmers with a vital, raw energy but can also be melancholic. He combined his painting technique ? characterised by powerful brushstrokes, dabs, smudges, scratches and streaks ? with drawing and outlining. Fully aligned with Modernism, he looked for ways to break through academism and reinvent painting, time and time again. This collection book is beautifully illustrated with dozens of paintings, sculptures and drawings. The numerous archive photographs offer unparalleled insight into the master?s life and oeuvre. 0 g.
Gebonden, Hardcover, 208 pagina's met afbeeldingen in kleur, 27.5x21cm, nieuw. ISBN 9789464666977. Een nieuwe kijk op Constant Permeke, Hoewel het werk van Constant Permeke (1886-1952) doorgaans tot het expressionisme wordt gerekend, exploreerde de kunstenaar een veelheid aan registers. Al vanaf het begin van zijn loopbaan kreeg hij ruime internationale erkenning met terugkerende onderwerpen als huiselijke taferelen en mensen in hun alledaagse handelingen. Zijn landschappen en zeegezichten stralen een verstilde, soms sublieme warmte uit. Voor Permeke waren kunst en leven nauw met elkaar verbonden. Zijn oeuvre zindert van levenslustige, rauwe energie maar ademt ook weemoed. De techniek van het schilderen ? met krachtige borstelstreken, toetsen, vegen, krassen en vlekken ? combineerde hij met tekenen en omlijnen. Volledig in de lijn van het modernisme zocht hij hoe hij het academisme kon doorbreken en hoe hij de schilderkunst telkens opnieuw kon uitvinden. Dit collectieboek is prachtig ge llustreerd met tientallen schilderijen, beelden en tekeningen. De vele archieffoto?s bieden een diepgravende kijk op het leven en werk van de meester. 0 g.
