by Ralph Waldo Emerson (Author), Jeffrey S. Cramer (Editor), Jeffrey S. Cramer (Introduction by)
A comprehensive collection of writings by "the most influential writer of the nineteenth century" (Harold Bloom)
Ralph Waldo Emerson's diverse body of work has done more than perhaps any other thinker to shape and define the American mind. Literary giants including Henry David Thoreau, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Walt Whitman were among Emerson's admirers and protégés, while his central text, Nature, singlehandedly engendered an entire spiritual and intellectual movement in transcendentalism. This long-awaited update--the first in more than thirty years--presents the core of Emerson's writings, including Nature and The American Scholar, along with revelatory journal entries, letters, poetry, and a sermon.
