概要

論文の詳細を見る
The present study examined correlations between nature and imagination in Beatrix Potter's works. Firstly, to understand her personal history, all her life was divided into four stages, and the contact with nature in her life was investigated. Secondly, passages from the Bible were presented which influenced her use of words and the structure of her tales, and the main features of her works in which she showed deep love and understanding for nature, particularly the nature in Great Britain surrounding her life. Potter didn't write how much she loved nature directly in her tales, but readers can feel her love of nature through her pictures in her books. Finally, this study presented in detail these correlations between nature and imagination in the process of creating her tales, especially "The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin".
