   Extractions: Henry S. Salt www.henrysalt.co.uk Henry Stephens Salt is not well-known today but he wrote nearly 40 books most of which cogently argued and urged for some much needed humane reforms in prisons, schools, in the economic organisations of society at large, and in the treatment of animals. He also founded the Humanitarian League and was editor of their publications. He had a profound influence on Mahatma Gandhi whom he introduced to Thoreau's writings via his own book on the then little known writer. Gandhi himself acknowledged the intellectual debt to Thoreau's essay on "civil disobedience" and Henry Salt in his own formulation of civil disobedience and non-violent noncooperation. So why is Henry Salt's writing important today? Firstly, hunting with dogs is again an issue in the U.K., his book Killing for Sport along his other writing on fox hunting, hare coursing, stag hunting, cub hunting and other bloodsports clearly demonstrates the sophisms used by the bloodsport lobby. Secondly, his masterpiece Animals' Rights: Considered in Relation to Social Progress remains the best and most readable book on animal "rights". Whichever humanitarian cause he chose to write about he managed to use his wit to show the folly of those opposed to progress. Thirdly, his autobiographies are a fascinating, and amusing, record of England during his lifetime, particularly of Eton, his friends, and socialism. Finally, his studies of Thoreau, Shelley and Jefferies remain among the most insightful ever written. In particular his

   Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Henry Stephens Salt (September 20, 1851 - April 19, 1939) was an influential English writer and campaigner for social reform in the fields of prisons, schools, economic institutions and the treatment of animals. I shall die ... as I have lived, rationalist, socialist, pacifist, and humanitarian. As quoted in Henry Salt, Humanitarian Reformer and Man of Letters , George Hendrick, Illinois, 1977 Religion has never befriended the cause of humaneness. Its monstrous doctrine of eternal punishment and the torture of the damned underlies much of the barbarity with which man has treated man; and the deep division imagined by the Church between the human being, with his immortal soul, and the soulless "beasts", has been responsible for an incalculable sum of cruelty. Seventy Years Among Savages No League of Nations, or of individuals, can avail, without a change of heart. Reformers of all classes must recognize that it is useless to preach peace by itself, or socialism by itself, or anti-vivisection by itself, or vegetarianism by itself, or kindness to animals by itself. The cause of each and all of the evils that afflict the world is the same the general lack of humanity, the lack of the knowledge that all sentient life is akin, and that he who injures a fellow-being is in fact doing injury to himself. The prospects of a happier society are wrapped up in this despised and neglected truth, the very statement of which, at the present time, must (I well know) appear ridiculous to the accepted instructors of the people.

Henry Salt also was visited by and influenced people like George Bernard Shaw , William Morris, G. K. Chesterton, H.M. Hyndman, Sidney and Beatrice Webb, Ramsay MacDonald and even Havelock Ellis. Though well-educated and destined for a lucrative career, Henry Salt choose to live a modest and very frugal life of a reform writer. He was practicing vegetarianism since he could not stomach seeing how the individual, living animal is "warped from its natural standard" to then be at our hands "scarcely more than animated beef or mutton or pork". Henry Salt is indeed an interesting turn-of-the-century writer whose ideas have been greatly influential and whose books are still worth reading. It is remarkable and hopeful how the ideas of a few thoughtful individuals can in the end wield such a large and progressive influence upon the world at large.

The numerous publications that emerged from his extended field excusions into the Amazon Basin and the Malay Archipelago (Indonesia) Wallace resulted in major contributions to evolutionary theory, biogeography, ecology, and ethnography, and made Wallace, by the end of his life, one of the best known naturalists in Britain. A Socialist, social progressive, and Spiritualist, Wallace's distinctive take on evolutionary change differed from the Darwinian mainstream in significant ways. The Wallace Collection is a miscellaneous assemblage of letters written by and to Alfred Russel Wallace, primarily during the last twenty five years of his life. Varied in content, the letters touch on Wallace's views on evolution, Spiritualism, and to a less degree, his progressive social commitments.

    Extractions: by Mark Andrews Regrettably, the huge tomb of perhaps the greatest ruler, Ramesses II , is unsuitable for excursions by tourists. For all his greatness, he perhaps chose one of the worst places for his tomb, which has seen no less then seven major flooding events. Even the underlying shale has been subjected to moisture induced swelling. The once magnificent paintings on the wall have mostly flaked off, and are now buried in different layers of flood strata. A number of people have examined this tomb (KV 7) in the Valley of the Kings on the West Bank at Luxor (ancient Thebes ). It is located at the foot of the northern side of the main valley. The tomb has at least partially stood open since antiquity. Explorers and Egyptologists who have investigated the tomb include Henry Salt around 1817, Champollion and Rosellini, Lepsius, Harry Burton (for Theodore Davis) between 1913 and 1914, and the Howard Carter , who cleaned up the entrance between 1917 and 1921. All of them came away from the tomb feeling as though there was nothing in it to explore, due to the extreme damage. However, the French are back under Christian Leblanc, once again excavating this tomb but apparently with some success. Today the tomb is almost completely cleared of flood debris.

    Stroup argues that the career of the lateVictorian Shelley scholar and animal rights activist henry Stephens salt provides a rich and unduly neglected  
    http://www.rc.umd.edu/praxis/ecology/stroup/stroup.html
    
    Extractions: Two key stages in the development of Percy Shelley's posthumous reputation came a half century apart. In 1886, revival of interest in the poet expanded with the publication of Edward Dowden's massive biography and the founding of the Shelley Society. By the mid-1930's, famous and influential critiques of the poet by T.S. Eliot and others felled trees over Shelleyan paths it would take years to clear. What makes these dates remarkable here is how they frame the active career of Henry Stephens Salt (1851-1939), one of Shelley's most perceptive readers and a forerunner, I will argue, of contemporary Ecocriticism. From his first book ( A Shelley Primer , 1887) to the final chapter of his last ( The Creed of Kinship , 1935), Salt remained engaged with Shelley's ideas and cited Shelley as a key inspiration for his reformist efforts. Of the nearly forty books Salt wrote , a handful announce themselves as specifically about Shelley: the Primer , obviously, plus critical studies of Julian and Maddalo and Hogg's Life of Shelley , prepared for the Shelley Society. Some of this material became part of the often-reprinted

    Extractions: Greek diplomat and collector He was born in Egypt as the son of a Greek merchant who made a fortune as surveyor to Napoleon’s army. As one of Egypt’s leading tradesmen, Anastasi also served as Swedish-Norwegian Consul-General, and like his colleagues he started collecting antiquities. His first collection was acquired for the Leiden Museum in 1828, and contained the three statues of Maya and Meryt and other masterpieces from Saqqara. A second collection went to the British Museum in 1839, the remainder was auctioned in Paris in 1857. Giovanni Battista Belzoni (1778-1823) Italian excavator and explorer Due to his gigantic proportions and strength, Belzoni had a successful early career as strong man in a London circus. He also had a interest in hydraulics and went to Egypt in 1815, hoping to sell an improved water-wheel. When this failed, he was employed by Salt in the removal of heavy sculptures from various sites. Belzoni became a great explorer who opened the temples of Abu Simble, the tomb of Seti I, and the pyramid of Khephren, excavated at Karnak, and visited the oases. He died during an expedition to the source of the Niger.
