" Walden is a book that defies traditional classification. Thoreau moves nimbly between social commentary, political critique and vivid descriptions of the parenting behavior of wood-cocks. His assessment of his modern society is at once insightful and boorish. He identifies with piercing accuracy the enslavement of his fellow citizens to the complexities of modern life while neglecting the many gifts that are given to us in and through the City of Man." -From Brian Brown's Guide The Worldview Guides from the Canon Classics Literature Series provide an aesthetic and thematic Christian…mehr

" Walden is a book that defies traditional classification. Thoreau moves nimbly between social commentary, political critique and vivid descriptions of the parenting behavior of wood-cocks. His assessment of his modern society is at once insightful and boorish. He identifies with piercing accuracy the enslavement of his fellow citizens to the complexities of modern life while neglecting the many gifts that are given to us in and through the City of Man." -From Brian Brown's Guide The Worldview Guides from the Canon Classics Literature Series provide an aesthetic and thematic Christian perspective on the most definitive and daunting works of Western Literature. Each Worldview Guide presents the big picture (both the good and the bad) without neglecting the details. Each Worldview Guide is a friendly literary coach-and a treasure map, and a compass, and a key-to help teachers, parents, and students appreciate, critique, and begin to master the classics. The bite-size WGs are divided into these ten sections (with some variation due to genre): Introduction, The World Around, About the Author, What Other Notables Said, Setting, Characters, & Argument, Worldview Analysis, Quotables, 21 Significant Questions & Answers, and Further Discussion & Review.
Autorenporträt
Brian Brown grew up with a love and passion for reading, and always dreamed of being a successful writer. Through a life of trials and tribulations, writing was always a hobby to find peace in. Years later, Brown had children of his own, and returned to storytelling as a way to connect with and entertain them. With each telling, Brown added a little more to the story, creating new adventures with the same characters. Gradually, he built the world that would become The Professional Adventuring Friends. It was one of his favorite parts about being a parent, and his decision to turn the stories into a book was motivated by his desire to leave behind something for his kids to be proud of, and to bring the same comfort and peace he found in books to other children and their families. Brown currently lives in Ontario, Canada.
