On Display: Nature Writing

Largely begun in the nineteenth century, nature writing was established as a discourse that translated the glories of nature and global exploration in words.  On display in the east entrance display cases, you will find a selection of materials related to the beginnings of nature writing and environmental writing as is happens today.


Familiar authors such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and John James Audobon are available to check out - alongside newer writings on environmental stewdardship and other issues in the news today.  Please see a member of the library staff at the circulation desk if you would like to check out any of the items.
