Synopsis:

The full texts of four seminal works by Emerson are presented in this volume: 'Nature, ' 'The American Scholar, ' 'The Divinity School Address, ' and 'The Transcendentalist.' Edward Ericson assesses that impact in his helpful introduction and evaluates anew Emerson's continuing influence on American culture in our century.

About the Author: Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) was one of the most influential literary figures and the leading voice of intellectual culture in nineteenth-century America. An essayist, philosopher, poet and founder of the Transcendentalist movement, his many now-iconic writings include Nature, The American Scholar, Self-Reliance, The Over-soul, Society and Solitude and Concord Hymn. Mentor to Whitman and Thoreau, Emerson continues to exert a powerful influence on Western thought and literature.
