5/15/2023 0 Comments My first summer in the sierraMuir is touched by those wild animals’ vitality, valiancy, intelligence. The imagery in Muir’s work displays how animals and plants have a harmonious relationship with nature and reveals the beauty of nature by depicting these vivid pictures in the wilderness. Although he never explicitly states it, Muir tries to use the “wilderness” template - through using those linguistic devices - to reveal the beauty of nature and further convince the public to cherish the nature of wilderness. John Muir utilizes imagery, spiritual language, reference of deep thoughts of the wilderness, and diction emphasizing the insincerity of his companions and visitors from city in regard to the wilderness in his book. In John Muir’s My First Summer in the Sierra, the author uses “wilderness” template, describing the wilderness is open and boundless, to present his experience in the Sierra Nevada.
