He met William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Thomas Carlyle, with whom he corresponded for half a century. After returning to the United States, Emerson lectured on natural history, biology, and history. In 1835 Emerson married Lydia Jackson and settled with her at the east end of the village of Concord, Massachusetts, where he then spent the rest of his life. Emerson's first book, Nature , a collection of essays, appeared when he was thirty-three and summed up his ideas. Emerson emphasized individualism and rejected traditional authority. He invited the world to "enjoy an original relation to the universe" and emphasized "the infinitude of the private man." All creation is one, he believed - people should try to live a simple life in harmony with nature and with others. "... the currents of the Universal Being circulate through me; I am part or particle of God," he wrote in Nature . His lectures The American Scholar (1837) and Address at Divinity College (1838) challenged the Harvard intelligentsia and warned about a lifeless Christian tradition. He was ostracized by Harvard for many years, but his message attracted young disciples, who joined the informal Transcendental Club, organized in 1836 by the Unitarian clergyman F.H. Hedge.

Autoconfianza ( Self -Reliance ) 1841 Ralph Waldo Emerson 1803-1882 Traducido y transcrito por www.Lospobresdelatierra.org "Ne te quaesiveris extra" ( No busqués las cosas fuera de vos mismo ) "La persona es su propia estrella; y el alma que puede crear una persona honesta y perfecta, dirige toda la luz, todas las influencias, todo el destino; nada para ella aparece muy temprano o muy tarde. Nuestras sombras fatales que caminan a nuestro lado". Epílogo a "Honest Man's Fortune" de Beaumont y Fletcher. el poder y la velocidad son sus manos y pies. Una conveniencia tonta es el duendecillo de las mentes pequeñas, adorado por estadistas, filósofos y teólogos pequeños. Con la conveniencia un alma grande no tiene nada qué hacer. Igual podría importarle su sombra en la pared. Decí hoy lo que pensás con palabras severas, y mañana decí lo que pensás mañana con palabras severas, aunque te contradigás en todo con lo que dijiste ayer. "Ah, pero muy seguramente serás incomprendido". ¿Y es tan malo ser incomprendido? Pitágoras fue incomprendido, y también Sócrates, y Jesús, y Lutero, y Copérnico, y Galileo, y Newton, y todo otro espíritu puro y sabio que se haya encarnado. Ser grande es ser incomprendido.

I am not solitary whilst I read and write, though nobody is with me. But if a man would be alone, let him look at the stars. The rays that come from those heavenly worlds, will separate between him and what he touches. One might think the atmosphere was made transparent with this design, to give man, in the heavenly bodies, the perpetual presence of the sublime. Seen in the streets of cities, how great they are! If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore; and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown! But every night come out these envoys of beauty, and light the universe with their admonishing smile.Ch. 1 Initially published anonymously, Emerson's first collection of essays

Electronic Archives of Liberal Religion Home Up Sermons Links ... How to help Adler, Felix: An Ethical Philosophy of Life, "Chapter III: Emerson" I find on looking backward that my development proceeded with the help of a series of definitions fixing my attitude toward teachers who made a special appeal to me, and toward great historic tendencies past and present. I was helped both by what I was able to appreciate in them, and, where I diverged, by what they forced me to think out for myself. Here let me acknowledge a passing debt to Emerson. As in the case of Kant, a strong attraction drew me toward Emerson with temporary disregard of radical differences, although the spell was never so potent or so persistent in the latter instance as in the former. I made Emerson's acquaintance in 1875. I came into touch with the Emerson circle and read and re-read the Essays. The value of Emerson's teaching to me at that time consisted in the exalted view he takes of the self. Divinity as an object of extraneous worship for me had vanished. Emerson taught that immediate experience of the divine power in self may take the place of worship. His doctrine of self-reliance also was bracing to a youth just setting out to challenge prevailing opinions and to urge plans of transformation upon the community in which he worked. But I soon discovered that Emerson overstresses self-affirmation at the expense of service. For a time indeed I reconciled in my own fashion the two contrary tendencies. The divine power, I argued, flows through me as a channel

Moreover, his essays have had an unusual appeal to a large and diverse audience of general readers. This is no doubt due to the nontechnical and accessible nature of his essays. One of the leading figures in the transcendentalist movement in American literature, Emerson received recognition and serious treatment from literary critics in his own time and well into the 20th century. And, over the last 15 years or so, he has undergone a significant, positive, and sophisticated reappraisal at the hands of a host of critics as a thinker, essayist, and poet. Ralph Waldo Emerson He is generally considered the quintessential American writer. Emerson’s earliest essay, Nature, was published in book form in 1836 and soon after was christened “the Bible of New England Transcendentalism.” Despite its sometimes murky metaphysical idealism, Nature clearly announced the emergence of a new voice in American literature. In addition to a celebration of the salutary value of communing with nature and the elevation of the affirmative spiritual dimension of life (through the persona of the Orphic poet), Emerson presented a condensed theory of signs that anticipated some aspects of recent semiotics. As if foreshadowing his own rich use of metaphorical imagery in his later essays, Emerson called attention to our natural reliance on analogy in ordinary language, literature, poetry, and philosophical thinking. Language is construed in Nature as pervaded by anthropomorphic metaphors and the natural world itself is

Basic background and ideas an article by Jone Johnson Lewis , Women's History Guide It's a question that many readers of my " Women in Transcendentalism " series have asked. So I'll try to explain it here. Margaret Fuller* When I first learned about Transcendentalism, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau in high school English class, I admit: I couldn't figure out what the term "Transcendentalism" meant. I couldn't figure out what the central idea was that held all those authors and poets and philosophers together so that they deserved this categorical name, Transcendentalists. And so, if you're at this page because you're having difficulty: you're not alone. Here's what I've learned since high school about this subject. The Transcendentalists can be understood in one sense by their context by what they were rebelling against, what they saw as the current situation and therefore as what they were trying to be different from.
