Manifesto and The Making of a Marginal Farm

Q: What is his intent with each piece?

A: I think the author try to deliver the message that people should live a simple,free, and enjoyable life. Men in the society has always been occupied by many works. They always live or work with forces, and can not do the things with their wishes. Therefore, the author of theses writings intend to tell people that live simple, be free, and have a joyful life. Like he writes in the poem, "Hope to live in that free republic for which it stands. Love the world. Work for nothing. Be joyful, and practice resurrection". And he also expresses this idea in his essay, which is "As a child i always intended to be a former. As a young man, i gave up that intention, assuming that i could not form and do the other things i wanted to do. And then i became a farmer almost unintentionally and buy a kind of necessity".
