Me | The House of Trout
https://trouteus.wordpress.com/about
The House of Trout. Just another WordPress.com weblog. These posts are my random and less than random thoughts about Romantic Ecology, poetry, and what it might mean to bring nature into the classroom (a big deal for us literature folks). Really, I’m just looking for a way to get school credit for backpacking. Responses to “Me”. Feed for this Entry. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Progress and Transience | The House of Trout
https://trouteus.wordpress.com/2008/12/09/progress-and-transience
The House of Trout. Just another WordPress.com weblog. December 9, 2008. In your own words, what is Thoreau’s view on man’s relationship with nature? Can we see this philosophy in any of the Romantic poetry we’ve read in the class so far? Of course, some of us have to make a living. For Thoreau, our. The saunterers — the ones who qualified — are crusaders, Thoreau and his companion knights. And by this game he in some ways brings Old World permanence forward. Feed for this Entry.

My Walk | The House of Trout
https://trouteus.wordpress.com/2008/10/30/56
The House of Trout. Just another WordPress.com weblog. A Focused Freewrite and Notes. October 30, 2008. It’s cold. I’m inside now, but I’ll be outside soon, and outside it’s cold. I can picture the clouds of breath that will spill from my mouth, the warm vaporous air of my lungs, as I walk my long steps to school. I must look like I’m steaming. This walk I do every morning has now become a part of my maintenance, my prayers. The door opens and closes, the gritty sound of the latch hitting the jamb].

August | 2008 | The House of Trout
https://trouteus.wordpress.com/2008/08
The House of Trout. Just another WordPress.com weblog. Archive for August, 2008. Read a Poem, and Read It Again, and Again…. August 29, 2008. I’ve been reading poetry for so long (and reading the world as poetry for even longer) that it’s difficult to tell someone, to profess to know, how to read a poem. And that there might even be a right way to do so seems absurd (and is as far as I can tell) so the best I can do is advice. From Pencils to Pixels. I’m not a romantic (i just crush a lot).

The House of Trout. Just another WordPress.com weblog. Bridge Time in Bishop. September 22, 2008. I was recently cleaning out my closets, which had reached a horrific state of entropy over the past four years, and while digging around in a dark and neglected corner, pushing past unused rackets and musty sleeping bags and darkened computer monitors, I found a disheveled old shoebox full of photos. Thel, the Wish, Oothoon, the World. September 11, 2008. To be chained to such a system is for Oothoon a livin...

The House of Trout. Just another WordPress.com weblog. Archive for December, 2008. December 21, 2008. John Ray Knott in his book. Writes, many of Abbey’s descriptive passages [in. I’ve talked before about Bishop, my healing place, my laughing place. The place I would go to shed the dense scale of living as a complex, mask-wearing, culturally constructed city creature. Culture is a beautiful thing, but it also causes us to create layers of personality to cope and survive in complex social. December 9, 2008.

The Academic Sublime | The House of Trout
https://trouteus.wordpress.com/2008/10/07/the-academic-sublime
The House of Trout. Just another WordPress.com weblog. A Focused Freewrite and Notes. October 7, 2008. Of course, these experiences are among my best memories. Even while I was on the edge of disaster, I was for the most part thoroughly enjoying myself. Did I register the sublime? Sure, I understood the terror and power involved, the vastness of my surroundings and the possibility of my final privation. Yet lately I have reason to see these moments in my past as, well, rather less than sublime. This seem...

https://trouteus.wordpress.com/2008/10/09/a-focused-freewrite-and-notes
The House of Trout. Just another WordPress.com weblog. A Focused Freewrite and Notes. October 9, 2008. Can we understand nature? Can we translate the language of our environment without appropriation and distortion? Or are we doomed to read in nature nothing but a reflection of our linguistically imprisoned minds? The following are notes I’ve written in response to Kevin Hutchings. Ecocriticism in British Romantic Studies. If we agree that nature speaks a language that expresses balance, and that we expr...
