📖 Sobre Izaak
Izaak é a grafia holandesa e arcaica em inglês de Isaac, significando 'ele ri'; embora compartilhe o legado bíblico do patriarca nascido da idosa Sara, esta grafia é mais conhecida por Izaak Walton, cujo The Compleat Angler (1653) nunca saiu de impressão e permanece o texto fundador da pesca como filosofia contemplativa.
