Fruitfulness

Fruitfulness is a book written by the French author Emile Zola. Originally published in 1899, it is a philosophical work that explores the concept of fertility, both in terms of the natural world and human society. The book is divided into three parts, each of which examines a different aspect of fruitfulness.The first part of the book focuses on the natural world and the cycles of growth and decay that occur in the plant and animal kingdoms. Zola argues that these cycles are essential to the health and vitality of the planet, and that human beings should strive to live in harmony with nature rather than trying to dominate it.The second part of the book looks at the role of fertility in human society. Zola argues that a healthy society is one that is able to reproduce itself, both physically and culturally. He discusses the importance of family and community, and the need for individuals to contribute to the greater good.The final part of the book is more personal in nature, as Zola reflects on his own life and experiences. He discusses the challenges of aging and the importance of leaving a legacy for future generations.Overall, Fruitfulness is a thought-provoking work that encourages readers to think deeply about their relationship with the natural world and their place in society. Zola's writing is both lyrical and insightful, making this book a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, ecology, or social theory.As soon as they were face to face on either side of the table, Mathieu began to pour forth his confession, recounting his dream--his poem, as he called it. And the doctor listened without interrupting, evidently won over by the young man's growing, creative emotion. When at last Boutan had to express an opinion he replied: ""Mon Dieu, my friend, I can tell you nothing from a practical point of view, for I have never even planted a lettuce. I will even add that your project seems to me so hazardous that any one versed in these matters whom you might consult would assuredly bring forward substantial and convincing arguments to dissuade you.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
