Does anyone know the biography of Thoreau, the author of Walden, and his thoughts

Walden is an account of the American writer Thoreau's solitary residence on the shores of Walden, describing what he saw, heard, and thought over a period of more than two years. The book advocates simple life, loves the scenery of nature, is rich in content, far-reaching in meaning, and vivid in language. It expresses that his life is full of pastoral atmosphere and gives people infinite yearning.

Thoreau's own practice at Walden and in his work have a consistent proposition of returning to nature. In his works, he constantly pointed out that most of us modern people are trapped by family, work and various material needs, lose spiritual pursuits, and live a materialistic life.

This situation persists today and is getting worse. Many of us pay little attention to things outside of trivial personal interests and activities. Many people's spiritual activities are too limited and they are only concerned with material life and sensual pleasures, and in Thoreau's words, our kind of life cannot be called "real life."

Approximate content:

Thoughts and emotions: show that the author uses them to challenge his personal and even the boundaries of humanity as a whole. But this challenge is not the infinite hope of self-fulfillment, but the infinite power of recovery from injury.

Freedom, unfettered His life is full of idyllic atmosphere, giving people infinite yearning.

To be honest, I read this, and I really didn't read anything about the bizarre journey of reinventing oneself.

After reading this** reminded me of the Chinese pastoral poet Tao Yuanming, they have a lot in common, **giving people the feeling of spring breeze and rain, only in the dead of night, when there is no distraction, can you read the author's kind of ethereal peace of mind.

It's purely a personal feeling after reading, if it's biased, it's a fart!

He doesn't talk much, but he can feel that he is a confident and determined man, because he has built a stone house on this desolate plateau.

2. This house bears traces of his construction everywhere, as well as the blood and sweat of repairing the ruins after he arrived in the highlands. The roof was firm, and the wind blew through the roof tiles, making a sound like a tsunami rushing to the shore.

3. Although the life is not rich, the shepherd's appearance is very neat. His beard was cleanly shaven, and his clothes were stitched so carefully that no patches could be seen.

4. The shepherd took me into the room and poured me a bowl of soup. I handed the tobacco bag and he said he didn't smoke. After a while, he took out a small bag, poured out a pile of acorns, and carefully picked them one by one.

5. He opened the sheep pen, grazed the sheep, and soaked the acorns carefully selected last night, together with the bag, into a bucket of water, and carried the bucket of water out of the house.
