>The nature fakers controversy was an early
>20th-century American literary debate highlighting the
>conflict between science and sentiment in popular
>nature writing. Following a period of growing interest
>in the natural world beginning in the late 19th
>century, a new literary movement, in which the natural
>world was depicted in a compassionate rather than
>realistic light, began to take shape. Works such as
>Ernest Thompson Seton's Wild Animals I Have Known
>(1898) and William J. Long's School of the Woods
>(1902) popularized this new genre and emphasized
>sympathetic and individualistic animal characters. In
>March 1903, naturalist and writer John Burroughs
>published an article entitled "Real and Sham Natural
>History" in the Atlantic Monthly. Lambasting writers
>for their seemingly fantastical representations of
>wildlife, he also denounced the booming genre of
>realistic animal fiction as "yellow journalism of the
>woods". Burroughs' targets responded in defense of
>their work in various publications, as did their
>supporters, and the resulting controversy raged in the
>public press for nearly six years. Dubbed the "War of
>the Naturalists", the controversy effectively ended
>when President Theodore Roosevelt publicly sided with
>Burroughs, publishing his article "Nature Fakers" in
>the September 1907 issue of Everybody's Magazine.
>Roosevelt popularized the negative colloquialism by
>which the controversy would later be known to describe
>one who purposefully fabricates details about the
>natural world. (more...)
