Who can help but laugh when an ordinary journalist earnestly suggests limiting the artists creative freedom?” “We are forever governed by journalism.... Journalism reigns eternally.” One of the most notorious British tabloids missed the chance to partake in the moral frenzy surrounding Oscar Wilde’s trials in 1895.

Earth is embroiled in its sixth major extinction event—this time caused not by asteroids or volcanos, but by us.

Those assumptions insist on a fundamental separation of human and earth that devalues earth and enables our exploitative relation to it.

Blending science, nature writing and indigenous philosophy, this groundbreaking book calls for mass reconnection to the land.

Scientists have long counseled against interpreting animal behavior in terms of human emotions, warning that such anthropomorphizing limits our ability to understand animals as they really are.

It begins with a history of the apple tree, chronicling its journey from Ancient Greece to America. The author compares the history of the apple to that of mankind, contemplating it with a tragic eye. He considered the idea of wildness not as sinful, but the source of creativity.

Oscar Wilde es recordado como una de las mentes más ingeniosas, gracias a su estilo y humor provocativo. En la década de 1890, fue uno de los dramaturgos más populares de Londres; sus obras maestras son The Importance of Being Earnest y la oscura y fantástica Picture of Dorian Gray. Sus escritos entrelazan temas de belleza, decadencia y duplicidad, lo que lo convirtió en un más que colorido agente provocador en la sociedad victoriana. Esto llevaría eventualmente a un juicio muy público después de ser acusado de sodomía.
