概要
 On August 31, 1846, the twenty-nine-year-old Henry David Thoreau embarked on a remarkable journey from his cabin at Walden Pond to Bangor, Maine. From there, he ventured deep into the wilderness accompanied by his Penobscot guide, Joe Polis. This expedition, often overshadowed by his more famous work Walden, reveals profound philosophical insights that some argue are even more impactful. Thoreau offers a sympathetic and insightful perspective on the Indigenous nations of Maine, particularly the Penobscot and Passamaquoddy, making this account a vital exploration of nature and culture. - Summary by ExpatriateCopyright Biographies 2.0 世界 哲学 社会科学 科学

    Shining Gateway by James Allen.

    Students of the works of James Allen all over the world will welcome with joy another book from his able pen. In this work we find the Prophet of Meditation in one of his deepest and yet most lucid expositions. How wonderfully he deals with fundamental principles! It is as though he came back to The Shining Gateway, and, standing there, he reviewed all the way up which his own feet have traveled, passing over no temptation that is common to man; knowing that the obstacles that barred his ascending pathway, or the clouds that at times obscured his vision, are the common experiences of all those who have set their faces towards the heights of Blessed Vision. As we read his words now, he seems to stand and beckon to us, saying, "Come on, my fellow Pilgrims; it is straight ahead to the Shining Gateway; I have blazed the track for you."
