MEMORIALS OF A HALF-CENTURY BY BELA HUBBARD “I have been a great feast, and stolen the sraps.” Love's Labor Lost.— SHAKES. “...various, that the mind Of desultory man, studious of change, And pleased with novelty, might be indulg'd.” The Task.— COWPER. WITH ILLUSTRATIONS NEW YORK & LONDON G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS The Knickerbocker Press 1887 copy 2 F566 .-87 copy 2 COPYRIGHT BY G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS 1887 By transfer OCT 9 1915 Press of G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS New York “The notes of a single observer, even in a limited district, describing accurately its features, civil, natural and social, are of more interests, and often of more value, than the grander view and boarder generalizations of history. “In a country whose character and circumstances are constantly changing, the little facts and incidents, which are the life history, soon pass from the minds of the present generation.”— Anon v PREFACE. War Department LIBRARY. Memorials of a half-century http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbum.21049 Library of Congress The writer came to Michigan, a youth, in the spring of 1835, and settled in the town of Springwells, two miles from the western limits of Detroit, then a city of less than 500 inhabitants. On or near the spot of his first abode, upon the banks of our noble river, he has dwelt for half a century, and until the spreading city has absorbed the intervening farms. Even a few years ago his present residence was so completely in the country, that the familiar rural sights and sounds were but little banished. The influences thus surrounding him are visible in many of the essays which make up this book, and which are in part compiled from his Diary. Such are the chapters upon the seasons and upon the inhabitants, human and brute, of the neighborhood. Of the other papers, some will be recognized as having been read before the Detroit Scientific Association, and State and County Pioneer societies, and some have already received publication in newspapers and pioneer collections. In the essays upon climate, the author ventures to believe, will be found something of merit, in the way of original observation and reseach. The character of our reasons he has endeavor to portray, less by attempt at vivid description, than by the plain statement of facts. Anything really new, on subjects of such universal interest, may prove of more than local value. vi The reflection that many of these memorial may possess a value, at least in the eyes of partial friends—alas! how few now—and may serve a purpose in the preservation of facts and phenomena which are fast being lost with the rapidly passing years, has been the inducement to their compilation into a volume. B. H. Memorials of a half-century http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbum.21049 Library of Congress Vinewood, December, 1886. L'ENVOL Go forth, little book, bark of destiny, freighted with the records and recollections of many desultory hours. Take thy chance upon the stream which sweeps all things along. Pleasing to the writer has been his task, and little will he take account with fate, whether favoring winds waft thee into a friendly port, or the wayward current drift thee aside, to be stranded on the shallows of oblivion. ix CONTENTS.

  • Lucan's Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulf
    Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Catherine Connors, Chair Alain Gowing Stephen Hinds Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Classics © Copyright 2014 Laura Zientek University of Washington Abstract Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Catherine Connors Department of Classics This dissertation is an analysis of the role of landscape and the natural world in Lucan’s Bellum Civile. I investigate digressions and excurses on mountains, rivers, and certain myths associated aetiologically with the land, and demonstrate how Stoic physics and cosmology – in particular the concepts of cosmic (dis)order, collapse, and conflagration – play a role in the way Lucan writes about the landscape in the context of a civil war poem. Building on previous analyses of the Bellum Civile that provide background on its literary context (Ahl, 1976), on Lucan’s poetic technique (Masters, 1992), and on landscape in Roman literature (Spencer, 2010), I approach Lucan’s depiction of the natural world by focusing on the mutual effect of humanity and landscape on each other. Thus, hardships posed by the land against characters like Caesar and Cato, gloomy and threatening atmospheres, and dangerous or unusual weather phenomena all have places in my study. I also explore how Lucan’s landscapes engage with the tropes of the locus amoenus or horridus (Schiesaro, 2006) and elements of the sublime (Day, 2013).
