About the book

In «Of Walks and Walking Tours: An Attempt to find a Philosophy and a Creed,» Arnold Haultain delves into the dynamic relationship between walking and philosophical contemplation. Through a series of engaging essays, Haultain explores the significance of the act of walking, intertwining personal reflections with broader existential inquiries. His elegant prose reflects the lyrical style of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, addressing the physical and metaphysical dimensions of walking, while embedding his narrative within the burgeoning context of nature writing and the rise of the modernist ethos. Haultain invites readers to consider the walk as a transformative act, a means of connecting intimately with both the external world and the inner self. Arnold Haultain, a literary figure often overshadowed by his contemporaries, was deeply influenced by the aesthetic movements of his time, particularly the transcendentalist and romantic ideals surrounding nature. His own experiences traversing the landscapes of England provided a backdrop for his philosophical musings. Haultain's academic background in philosophy and literature equipped him with the tools to synthesize personal experiences with broader theoretical reflections, positioning him uniquely in the literary landscape. This book is a compelling read for those who appreciate the meditative aspects of walking and seek a deeper understanding of its philosophical implications. Haultain's insights resonate not only with walkers but also with anyone aspiring to find meaning within the rhythm of daily life. Readers will find themselves inspired to embark on their walks, equipped with a newfound perspective on the interplay of movement, thought, and existence.
