Top Dall’incipit del libro: — Top! Il cane seguitò per la sua strada, proprio opposta a quella da cui veniva il padrone — Prospero Marzioli — nel tornar a casa. — Top! Al secondo più forte richiamo il bracco dovè ricordarsi del castigo meritato altra volta facendo il sordo: una schioppettata della quale, più che pallini, gli restava addosso una gran paura. Piegò il capo; si fermò un istante, quasi a riflettere; poi accorse. E dimandava grazia con la coda e con gli sguardi. Se non aveva da temer lo schioppo — perchè si trovavano in paese —, c’era il bastone non meno spaventevole a rammentarne i colpi; e a vederlo già alzato — misericordia! — si comportò come soleva in tale pericolo. Una tattica tutta sua: s’abbatteva in terra supino, le gambe piegate e rattratte.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolving perceptions and human interactions with nature. Through the accounts of historical figures such as scientists, philosophers, and poets, the author traces the shift in perspective toward the natural world, from mystical reverence to scientific inquiry and, ultimately, an awareness of the delicate balance between humanity and environment. The author delves into the profound impact of the Romantic era on this transformation, highlighting the influence of thinkers like Rousseau and Wordsworth in fostering a deep appreciation for nature's beauty and power.
