Extractions: Writing 4/5 This book is divided into two parts the first of which describes the ecological response to the human abandonment of Britain in the late 19th century. The second is a pictaquarese travel through the post-apocalyptic landscape. It was written in the 19th-century by Richard Jefferies (1848-1887), an English writer and naturalist. Ronald Wright cites it as an influence on A Scientific Romance Excerpt: The old me say their fathers told them that soon after the fields were left to themselves a change began to be visible. It became green everywhere in the first spring, after London ended, so that all the country looked alike. The meadows were green, and so was the rising wheat which had been sown, but which neither had been nor would receive any further care. Such arable fields as had not been sown, but where the last stubble had been ploughed up, were overrun with conch-grass, and where the short stubble had not been ploughed, the weeds hid it. So there was no place which was not more or less green; the footpaths were the greenest of all, for such is the nature of grass where it has once been trodden on, and by-and-by, as summer came on, the former roads were thinly covered with the grass that had spread out from the margins. In the autumn, as the meadows were not mown, the grass withered as it stood falling this way and that, as the wind had blown it; the seeds dropped, and the bents became a greyish-white, or, where the docks and sorrel were thick a brownish red. The wheat, after it had ripened, there being non one to reap it, also remained standing, and was eaten by clouds of sparrows, rooks, and pigeons, which flocked to it and were undisturbed, feasting at pleasure. As the winter came on, the crops were beaten down by the storms, soaked with the rain, and trodden upon by herds of animals.

Where London Stood Richard Jefferies (18481887). British author and naturalist who published awork of scientific romance called After London; or Wild England (1885). http://www.stanford.edu/~dplatt/Ruins/nineteen.html
Extractions: Nineteenth Century Richard Jefferies (1848-1887). British author and naturalist who published a work of 'scientific romance' called After London; or Wild England (1885). Arguably his success lay in his vivid descriptions of the returning flora and fauna (which constitute the first, larger, part of the novel) rather than in characterisation or plot. Footpaths were concealed by the second year, but roads could be traced, though as green as the sward, and were still the best for walking, because the tangled wheat and weeds, and, in the meadows, the long grass, caught the feet of those who tried to pass through. Year by year the original crops of wheat, barley, oats, and beans asserted their presence by shooting up, but in gradually diminished force, as nettles and coarser plants, such as the wild parsnips, spread out into the fields from the ditches and choked them. Aquatic grasses from the furrows and water-carriers extended in the meadows, and with the rushes, helped to destroy or take the place of the former sweet herbage. Meanwhile the brambles, which grew very fast, had pushed forward their prickly runners farther and farther from the hedges till they now reached ten or fifteen yards. The briars had followed, and the hedges had widened to three or four times their first breadth, the fields being equally contracted. Starting from all sides at once, these brambles and briars in the course of about twenty years met in the centre of the largest fields.
