Omschrijving
The Fleece: A Poem, In Four Books is a poetic work written by John Dyer and first published in 1757. The book tells the story of the wool trade in England, focusing on the journey of a fleece of wool from its origins on a sheep's back to its eventual use in the production of clothing. The poem is divided into four books, each of which explores a different aspect of the wool trade. The first book describes the life of a sheep and the process of shearing, while the second book tells the story of the wool merchants who trade the fleece. The third book explores the process of spinning and weaving wool into cloth, and the fourth and final book celebrates the beauty and utility of woolen clothing. Throughout the poem, Dyer uses vivid imagery and descriptive language to bring the world of the wool trade to life, and he also touches on themes of nature, commerce, and the human relationship with the natural world. The Fleece: A Poem, In Four Books is a classic work of English literature and an important historical document that provides insight into the wool trade in England during the 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
