A Dog'S Tale - A Short Story

de Mark Twain

1,49€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The book is told from the standpoint of a loyal household pet, a dog self-described by the first sentence of the story; "My father was a St. Bernard, my mother was a collie, but I am a Presbyterian." The story begins with a description of the dog&#39;s life as a puppy and her separation from her mother, which to her was inexplicable. Her puppy and her owner&#39;s new child were soon added to her new home. When a fire breaks out in the nursery, the dog risks her life to drag the baby to safety. In the process, her motives are misunderstood and she is cruelly beaten by the father of the family with a cane, resulting in her leg getting broken. Soon, however, the truth of the situation is discovered and she receives no end of praise. Later in the story, her puppy dies, killed by the father of the family to prove his opinion on optics to his scientist peers. Only a servant seems to realize the irony of this, exclaiming, "Poor little doggie, you saved HIS child!" In the end, the dog (who does not realize her puppy is dead until her own hour is upon her) pines inconsolable over the grave of the puppy with the clear implication that she will do so until death.

Wild Animals I Have Known

de Ernest Thompson Seton

~~2,87€~~ 2,58€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Wild Animals I Have Known, a collection of short stories published in 1898, was Ernest Thompson Seton's most popular work and one of the most popular fiction books of its day.The stories are largely independent of each other, with each one following the life of a different animal. They explore themes of survival in a world populated by humans and other creatures, and the challenges that each animal faces in its efforts to thrive. Each story touches on the duality between the beauty and brutality of the natural world. The collection as a whole illustrates recurring themes of triumph and tragedy, while painting a picture of the great freedom and grave danger that animals face every day of their lives.In his 1903 essay "Real and Sham Natural History," naturalist John Burroughs blamed this book in particular for founding the genre of stories he called "Nature Fakers," sparking a controversy that raged for years and only ended when President Theodore Roosevelt publicly sided with Burroughs in September 1907.While the book's anthropomorphization of animals through Seton's use of English words to represent the animals' "language" was one of the characteristics at the center of its controversy, Wild Animals I Have Known was among the first literary works written with the intent to evoke a sense of empathy, rather than fear, for these wild animals, by showing that even for predators, survival in the wild is never easy.Perfect for readers who love authentic animal stories that capture both the beauty and harsh realities of wildlife, this timeless classic offers unforgettable tales of courage, survival, and the eternal struggle between civilization and the wild. Seton's masterful storytelling and deep understanding of animal behavior make each story a vivid, emotional journey that will resonate with nature lovers and fiction enthusiasts alike.The source for this public-domain ebook is Standard Ebooks (standardebooks.org).
