Hardback or Cased Book. Condizione: New. The Elegance of Ferns: Portrait of a Botanical Marvel. Book.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Discover the weirdly wonderful world of ferns-plants that outlived the dinosaurs, inspired a Victorian-era obsession, and continue to enchant us with their mathematical perfection and lush beauty.Ancient and enigmatic, ferns captivate with understated elegance. Their fronds unfurl in perfect mathematical spirals, connecting us to Earth's primordial past. Victorian-era "fern fever" transformed these plants into cultural icons inspiring art and literature, while Maori traditions revere them as sacred links between heaven and earth. Ferns also played a central role in the picturesque movement, where artists like Reverend William Gilpin sought to capture their untamed naturalism in evocative landscapes. While for poets like John Clare, ferns symbolized a mystical connection to nature, their shadowy habitats offering a refuge for contemplation and melancholy.But ferns are more than symbols-they are ecological marvels, resilient and adaptive. Nitzke also explores the environmental and evolutionary importance of ferns, which have adapted to thrive in diverse environments, from the lush rainforests of New Zealand to the fossilized landscapes of Saxony. Their prehistoric dominance-towering three stories high-is preserved in fossilized remains 360 million years old.The Elegance of Ferns invites us to marvel at these living relics-symbols of beauty, cultural identity, and ecological resilience illuminating our connection to the natural world.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. While concepts of Earth have a rich tradition, more recent examples show a distinct quality: Though ideas of wholeness might still be related to mythical, religious, or utopian visions of the past, "Earth" itself has become available as a whole. This raises several questions: How are the notions of one Earth or our Planet imagined and distributed? What is the role of cultural imagination and practices of signification in the imagination of "the Earth"? Which theoretical models can be used or need to be developed to describe processes of imagining Planet Earth?
