Sinopsis de PAGAN PAPERS

In "Pagan Papers," Kenneth Grahame explores themes of nature, nostalgia, and the intersection of humanity with the pastoral world through a series of essays and vignettes. Written in a lyrical and evocative style, the book delves into the beauty of the natural environment, capturing the essence of rural life in early 20th-century England. GrahameÄôs use of rich imagery and personal reflections invites readers to reminisce about the innocence of childhood and the ephemeral nature of existence, while positioning his work within the literary context of the Edwardian era, where there was a burgeoning awareness of the relationship between man and nature. Kenneth Grahame, best known for his beloved childrenÄôs classic "The Wind in the Willows," was deeply influenced by his own idyllic upbringing in the English countryside. Drawing from his childhood experiences and his keen appreciation for nature, Grahame penned "Pagan Papers" as a celebration of the rural landscape and a meditation on the shifting dynamics of society amid the encroachment of modernity. His background in literature and his connections with notable contemporaries, such as A.A. Milne, further shaped his perspectives on storytelling and the themes he wished to convey. This book is highly recommended for readers who cherish lyrical prose and have an affinity for nature writing. "Pagan Papers" serves as an evocative reminder of the beauty that lies in simplicity and invites a contemplative reflection on the human experience. It is a profound work that appeals to both lovers of literature and those seeking solace in the splendor of the natural world.

Escrito por Kenneth Grahame


(1859-1932). És un dels grans escriptors britànics de literatura infantil i juvenil. Va néixer a Edimburg, però quan es va quedar orfe de mare va anar a viure amb la seva àvia al sud d’Anglaterra, a prop del riu Tàmesi, en un ambient d’embarcacions fluvials i boscos de ribera que va reflectir en moltes de les seves obres. Era molt bon estudiant i hauria volgut anar a la universitat d’Oxford, però els seus tutors no li ho van permetre i el van fer entrar a treballar al banc d’Anglaterra. Tot i que va mantenir aquesta feina fins que es va jubilar, Grahame també es va dedicar a la literatura des de ben jove. El seu relat The reluctant dragon (del 1898) i el recull d’històries d’El vent entre els salzes, del 1908, que ell va inventar per al seu fill, són les seves obres més famoses, que s’han adaptat diverses vegades al teatre i al cinema.
