Thoreau's Walden is about nature and its superiority to the civilized world. Hence his imagery implies the authenticity and vividness of nature, as opposed to the superficial and artificial edifice of humanity and civilization. Imagery appeals to human senses, and the reader gets a feeling that the described phenomenon can be touched, heard, seen, smelled - which conveys a colorful and profound view of nature, as something that is far from mere abstraction. Nature is, in fact, a genuine part of us that we can immerse in and enjoy with the whole of our being. For example, "the wood thrush sang around, and was heard from shore to shore" is an auditory imagery - we can almost hear the thrush's song and its echoing. A visual imagery can be seen in "<span>shallow and darkened by clouds, the water, full of light and reflections" - there are nuances of colors and meanings in this passage, which imply the ever changing and ever evolving nature of the landscape, which seems to have a life of its own.</span>
