Book excerpt: "The book has no equal in its kind. It is the wittiest work of America's wittiest writer." -Mark van Doren, American Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, writer, and critic In English Traits (1856), Ralph Waldo Emerson blends his observations of the English character based on travels in England with insights gained from his extensive reading of British history. Because of its playfulness, wit, and clarity of style, this book quickly became one of the author's most popular works. In the English culture, Emerson recognized the source of everything American-from the laws of society to the plot of a novel. His observations are organized into 19 essays that include "First Visit to England," "Land," "Race," "Ability," "Manners," "Truth," "Character," "Cocaine," "Wealth," "Aristocracy," "Universities," "Religion," "Literature," "The Times," "Stonehenge," "Personal," "Result," and "Speech at Manchester."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published between 1909 and 1917 under the name "Harvard Classics," this stupendous 51-volume set-a collection of the greatest writings from literature, philosophy, history, and mythology-was assembled by American academic CHARLES WILLIAM ELIOT (1834-1926), Harvard University's longest-serving president. Also known as "Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf," it represented Eliot's belief that a basic liberal education could be gleaned by reading from an anthology of works that could fit on five feet of bookshelf. Volume V features two collections from American poet and philosopher RALPH WALDO EMERSON (1803-1882): Essays-on such topics as "The American Scholar," "Self-Reliance," "Friendship," "Heroism," and more-and English Traits, in which he examines the British character as gathered from his travels in England.

Book excerpt: "The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well." -Ralph Waldo Emerson, Character (1844) Character (1844), by Ralph Waldo Emerson, is connected to the author's other writings in which he attempted to define the values that are central to the philosophical system he was creating. Character, according to Emerson, is a form of greatness which can be perceived by its effects more than by any direct manifestation. Evidence of character is a cheerful self-sufficiency, as well as by a person's "incessant growth" of the soul.

Book Synopsis Emerson by : Robert D. Richardson Jr.
Download or read book Emerson written by Robert D. Richardson Jr. and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-04-22 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recipient of the Francis Parkman Prize from the Society of American Historians Ralph Waldo Emerson is one of the most important figures in the history of American thought, religion, and literature. The vitality of his writings and the unsettling power of his example continue to influence us more than a hundred years after his death. Now Robert D. Richardson Jr. brings to life an Emerson very different from the old stereotype of the passionless Sage of Concord. Drawing on a vast amount of new material, including correspondence among the Emerson brothers, Richardson gives us a rewarding intellectual biography that is also a portrait of the whole man. These pages present a young suitor, a grief-stricken widower, an affectionate father, and a man with an abiding genius for friendship. The great spokesman for individualism and self-reliance turns out to have been a good neighbor, an activist citizen, a loyal brother. Here is an Emerson who knew how to laugh, who was self-doubting as well as self-reliant, and who became the greatest intellectual adventurer of his age. Richardson has, as much as possible, let Emerson speak for himself through his published works, his many journals and notebooks, his letters, his reported conversations. This is not merely a study of Emerson's writing and his influence on others; it is Emerson's life as he experienced it. We see the failed minister, the struggling writer, the political reformer, the poetic liberator. The Emerson of this book not only influenced Thoreau, Fuller, Whitman, Dickinson, and Frost, he also inspired Nietzsche, William James, Baudelaire, Marcel Proust, Virginia Woolf, and Jorge Luis Borges. Emerson's timeliness is persistent and striking: his insistence that literature and science are not separate cultures, his emphasis on the worth of every individual, his respect for nature. Richardson gives careful attention to the enormous range of Emerson's readings—from Persian poets to George Sand—and to his many friendships and personal encounters—from Mary Moody Emerson to the Cherokee chiefs in Boston—evoking both the man and the times in which he lived. Throughout this book, Emerson's unquenchable vitality reaches across the decades, and his hold on us endures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Personality of Emerson In my nineteenth year, as I was reading Greek with Professor Hoyt of the Exeter Academy, he related to me how his classmates at Dartmouth invited Emerson in 1838 to give them that grand discourse on Literary Ethics which was one of the first of his orations I had read, how few under stood it, and how Emerson repelled the proposal of reporting it. I curse the Reporters, said the gentle sage, I curse them; so, at least, my old teacher reported that Emerson at Hanover had said to him. But when, many years after, I cited this remark to Emerson, he could not believe he had made it. But his opinion was so constant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the life and ideas of Ralph Waldo Emerson, the American essayist, lecturer, philosopher, and poet who championed individualism and presciently criticized societal pressures. In this biography, you'll follow Emerson's journey as he moved away from the beliefs of his contemporaries and formulated the philosophy of transcendentalism, which he disseminated through numerous published essays and public lectures across the United States. Through his famous essays, including 'Self-Reliance' and 'The Over-Soul', Emerson developed ideas such as individuality, freedom, and the relationship between the soul and the surrounding world. He was a linchpin of the American romantic movement and a mentor and friend to fellow transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau.
