The last of the light : about twilight
Davidson, Peter, 1957-2017
Book
Neither day nor night, twilight has long exerted a fascination for Western artists, thinkers, and writers, while haunting the Romantics and intriguing philosophers and scientists. In 'The Last of the Light', Peter Davidson takes readers through our culture's long engagement with the concept of twilight-from the melancholy of smoky English autumn evenings to the midnight sun of northern European summers and beyond.
