Re-interpretation of classic works,
Let you and your children know a different insect world.
Content abstract: We may all have had a childhood fascinated by the colorful insect world. As time goes by, the throb of these hearts is gradually buried under the busy life. However, if we read Fabres's insect world, we will be deeply moved by his delicate feelings and poetic descriptions ..., because it is a Homeric epic that he has spent all his life interwoven with his insect friends and is still being staged.
Like many children, when I was a child, I was stubborn and keen to go to nature to find all the ugly or beautiful insects. Although adults often disdain my actions, I still enthusiastically braved the scorching sun, braved the wind and rain to rummage through the fields and rocks, and felt the surprise given by nature at the moment I found my prey.
With the passage of time, I grew up slowly, and my obsession with insects gradually weakened from strong to weak. Until one day, when a 7-year-old boy from my neighbor was holding a loud cricket and showing off in front of me, I found myself surprised at his joy. At that moment, I deeply realized that I had lost something in a materialistic society.
However, in such a materialistic society, there is such a magical person. He detached himself from the world, spent his whole life observing and studying the insect world, and wrote ten volumes of books specially for these "insects". These books on "insects" were reprinted in one edition and translated into more than 50 languages, which still caused a sensation again and again in the reading world after a hundred years, creating one miracle after another for the world.
So, who is such a magical person? What exactly is his book?
It turns out that he is an old man in Fabres who enjoys the titles of "Poet of Science", "Homer of Insect World" and "Virgil of Insect World". And his work is a magnificent poem that eulogizes life-Insect.
Fabres's old man has "philosopher's general thoughts, artist's general views and writer's general feelings and expressions". In "Insect Tale", he combined his professional knowledge with his life feeling, and he explained it. In his description of an insect, daily life habits and characteristics, he reflected his unique vision of life, and his words were filled with respect and love for life.
Fabres, who has been observing insects all his life, stands aloof from the rest of the world, preferring to lie on a stone all day and experience the joys and sorrows of insects with relish, rather than go to an upper-class dinner. In the silent communication with insects, Fabres is in great harmony with nature. Although he was once a doctor, interviewed by Charles Louis Napolé on Bonaparte for a few minutes, and taught in avignon, he didn't value these. His family moved to the edge of the town and lived in an old house. In order to study bugs, he would rather live a lonely and miserable life.
Today, I was leafing through Insects, and I was always moved. Humidity, stars, and the smell of insects, I seem to be back to my childhood. Their every move is endowed with people's thoughts and feelings; As creatures, they have a lot in common with people, so you have to be surprised and happy! I know that I am enjoying the pleasure of reading through Fabres's eyes; And Fabres's hard work for this, but I have no experience.
Entomology is not a world created by writers. It is different from novels and is by no means another planet! They are the most basic facts! Every day and night of Fabres's life is lonely, quiet and almost isolated. I looked up. At this moment, I really want to look up my head and treat the mystery of insects as if I were looking up at the starry sky.
Fabres let me know about the insect world, and insects let me remember Fabres forever.
