Insect Literature

by Lafcadio Hearn

Book Overview

"The insect-world is altogether a world of goblins and fairies." - "S mi"

As Lafcadio Hearn observes in his essay "Insects in Greek Poetry", "the capacity to enjoy the music of insects and all that it signifies in the great poem of nature tells very plainly of goodness of heart, aesthetic sensibility, a perfectly healthy state of mind." And to this, one might add a keen sense of wonder.
