As one of the architects of the transcendentalist movement, Emerson embraced a philosophy that championed the individual, emphasized independent thought, and prized the splendid labyrinth of ones own perceptions. More than any writer of his time, he forged a style distinct from his European predecessors and embodied and defined what it meant to be an American. Matthew Arnold called Emersons essays the most important work done in prose.INCLUDES A MODERN LIBRARY READING GROUP GUIDE\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ethe definitive collection of Emerson's major speeches, essays, and poetry.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52337597940000,"sku":"USED0679783229","price":17.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71R0rqoOpXL_eacb4c25-8d1f-4cfb-9e1a-ca287e79ba1a.jpg?v=1789080306","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-essential-writings-of-ralph-waldo-emerson-modern-library-classics-0679783229-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
