註釋
Sampling from Walden, the essay "Civil Disobedience," and the letters and journals of his later years, among other texts, Kevin P. Van Anglen distills Henry David Thoreau's immense, creative, clever, and surprisingly progressive thought into 750 quotations, presenting a concise and straightforward introduction to Emerson’s profound philosophy. Addressing subjects as wide-ranging as English literature, the act of reading, and the art of love to independence, ecology, and democratic government, Emerson was a true original writing at a time of American exceptionalism, and his incomparable insight will thrill readers from every background.
