Spring Fever Across Life Death Rebirth In Teens And Nature
The piece links spring fever to life and death themes in youths and nature. It cites Dionysus myths, Frazer’s The Golden Bough, Stravinsky, and Omar Khayyam, then notes folk medical practices in spring and Emily Dickinson lines. It observes biological timing in gonads and internal clocks driving seasonal mating and growth. It includes examples of Kimberly Campanelli and a modern Tom Sawyer playing hockey to celebrate.
