Обложка Rod Giblett: Wetlands and Western Cultures (ePUB)

Giblett’s analysis of the wetland motif in literature and the arts, including in Beowulf and the writings of Tolkien and Thoreau, demonstrates two approaches to wetlandstheir denigration as dead waters or their commendation as living waters with a potent cultural history.
