Excerpt from In Memoriam, Ralph Waldo Emerson: Recollections of His Visits to England in 1833, 1847-8, 1872-3, and Extracts From Unpublished Letters
We believe, no book has been published for many years, written in a more sincere style of idiomatic English, or which discovers an equal mastery over all the riches of the language. The author makes ample amends for the occasional eccentricity of his genius, not only by frequent bursts of pure splendour, but by the wit and sense which never fail him. But what will chiefly commend the book to the discerning reader is the manifest design of the work, which is a Criticism upon the Spirit Of the Age, - we had almost said, of the hour, in which we live exhibiting, in the most just and novel light, the present aspects of Religion, Politics, Literature, Arts, and Social Life. Under all his gaiety, the writer has an earnest meaning, and discovers an insight into the manifold wants and tendencies of human nature, which is very rare among our popular authors. The philanthropy and the purity of moral sentiment, which inspire the work, will find their way to the heart of every lover of virtue.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an illuminating account of Ralph Waldo Emerson, an American philosopher and writer of the 19th century. Born into a family steeped in Puritan tradition, Emerson challenged conventional religious doctrines, seeking inspiration in nature, literature, and the works of philosophers like Plato and Swedenborg. As the leading transcendentalist, Emerson articulated the belief that reality is based on a fundamental unity that transcends the physical world. Through introspection and self-reliance, he asserted that individuals can access the divine within themselves and the world around them. Emerson's writings explore a range of themes, including individualism, ethics, the nature of truth, and the power of intuition. His ideas profoundly influenced American thought and literature, encouraging a shift away from dogma and towards a more open and exploratory approach to spirituality, intellectualism, and social reform. His famous essays, such as "Nature," "The American Scholar," and "Self-Reliance," are regarded as classics of American literature, eloquently expressing his philosophy of self-discovery and the pursuit of truth and meaning in a rapidly changing world.
