Sinopsis
Ralph Waldo Emerson is the central figure in
American political thought. Until recently,
his vast influence was most often measured by its
impact on literature, philosophy and aesthetics.
In particular, Emerson is largely responsible for
introducing idealism into America in the form of
living one's life self-reliantly. But in the past
few decades, critics have increasingly come to
realize that Emerson played a key role in
abolitionism and other social movements around
the time of the American Civil War. This
selection for Cambridge Texts in the History of
Political Thought highlights not only Emerson's
practical political involvement, but also
examines the philosophical basis of his political
writings. All of the usual series features are
included, with a concise introduction, notes for
further reading, chronology and apparatus
designed to assist undergraduate and graduate
readers studying this greatest of American
thinkers for the first time.
