This video lecture (F.Sc. Second Year English) covers the  Unit No. 4 “The Man Who Planted Trees” 
In this video we will study about this story. The Man Who Planted Trees is a 1953 short story by French author Jean Giono. 
It is an allegory, or extended metaphor, that tells the tale of a shepherd’s years-long journey to rejuvenate a ravaged forest in a valley of the Alps in the Provence region of southeastern France. 
The story, influenced by the two World Wars and the modernist literary and aesthetic movement, reflects themes of environmental degradation and existential uncertainty which rose to the forefront of European consciousness from the 1940’s onward.
