  • In Cooper's the Leatherstocking Tales
    CONNECTING THE VANISHING FLORA, FAUNA AND ITS RELATION TO THE INDIAN REMOVAL POLICY AS SEEN IN COOPER’S THE LEATHERSTOCKING TALES Ceisy Nita Wuntu [email protected] English Department, Faculty of Languages and Arts, Manado State University, Indonesia Abstract: This study aims at connecting the vanishing flora, fauna and its Relation to the Indian removal policy in Cooper’s The Leatherstocking Tales. This research applies an American Studies’ interdisciplinary principle supplemented by the myth and symbol theory proposed by Henry Nash Smith. Smith claimed the importance of imaginative works in revealing American culture. He declared that the historical, anthropological and cultural, sociological, and ecological data as covered in this research can be equipped by data from imaginative works. Hence, in this research, those data are presented integratedly in their context of past and present. In this research, in order to highlight environmental matters in Cooper’s The Leatherstocking Tales, the analysis covers the data above that are integrated with the data revealed in The Leatherstocking Tales as a whole by employing the concept of ecocriticism. The spirit of the immigrants to have a better life in the new world, stimulated by its rich, lush and beautiful circumstances, in fact, is not an aim of a sustainable life. The desire to improve their life is not enough without using and treating its environment wisely as well as facing it with the environmental conservation paradigm. The spirit of doing the exploitation is a consequence of western humanism value. The reason of coming to America to avoid the population density as well as the competition of life cannot be attained when the immigrants experience the same population density and harsh competition as in their old world and when the beautiful nature disappears, the forests become cities, the tranquility becomes noisy and crowded, and the people experience the uncomfortable life that many kinds of conflict can follow.

Animal genetic resources and animal management systems are an integral part of ecosystems and productive landscape in Italy, Europe and all over the world. Local breeds can be considered as a part of the history of some human populations as well as important materials from a scientific point of view. To date there is an urgent need of a specific conservation program for these breeds because of the limited number of their individuals and their risk of extinction. Although the local breeds are usually not competitive for production traits, they may carry valuable features such as disease resistance or distinctive product quality. The higher economic value of typical productions compared to conventional commercial products and the growing consumer preferences towards food quality, could strongly support the need to launch conservation programs of livestock biodiversity. In this regard, efficient in situ and ex situ conservation strategies are obligatory tools in order to implement an appropriate action for the conservation of livestock biodiversity.

  • The Flemish Cuckoo
    THE FLEMISH CUCKOO Searching for their origin Text and photos: Norbert Schollaert (B) PART 3 CHICKEN BREEDS AND EXHIBITIONS From the middle of the 19th century, we see a shift towards greater consumption of imported products and again more meat. The advances in farming techniques by selecting and crossbreeding also followed out in the poultry world. But it was still the better middle class who could afford the keeping and breeding of purebred fowl. From this time, in America, Britain and the European mainland, distinguishable breeds of chicken got a breed name. The upper middle classes was developing an interest in keeping chickens for their ornamental value. The exhibitions of farmyard animals became popular. During the Belle Epoque, in 1900, the consumption of eggs doubled and the famous ‘poulets de Bruxelles’ were in great demand on the rich urban tables. The triangle Aalst - Mechelen - Brussels acquired fame with his fatteners which produced up to 1000 chickens per year. It was the heyday of the Belgian breeds, which locations we can see on a map from 1903 “Habitats des races Belges” (courtesy of the Image store of the CAG). In the north, the Campine; in the east the Braekel and Courtrai à cinq droits (The Courtrai or Kortrijk Fowl was a short-legged Braekel with 5 toes, that according to Edward Brown was a descendant of the Dorkings); in the south the Race Ardennaise and the Race Herve (the Ardenner and the Herve fowl) and in the centre a large region with Minorca (a Spanish variety with black plumes, which was seen in 1783 for the first time in England and in 1880 already was bred in Germany), the Race Coucou (The Cuckoo coloured chickens) and Brabançonnes.
