About this title

Synopsis

As an adventuring heretic, Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882) challenged comfortable assumptions about nature, scientific understanding and divine intelligence. The Sage of Concords writings continue to inspire and influence new generations of thinkers and readers as he bridges the wild places of the heart and intellect.

This portable sampler of 60 selections from 30 years of Emersons writings reveals the essence of Emersons spiritual vision. Complementing each passage is an inspirational quote from historical and contemporary luminaries as diverse as Margaret Fuller, the Dalai Lama and Jack Kerouac.

Journey into the mind and heart of this great 19th century author, poet and philosopher whose writings remain relevant and inspiring today.
