Nature Ralph Waldo Emerson 9781545010549 Books Reviews
RWE is a great author, essayist and philosopher. I think this, everybody knows. But what not everyone might know is the true genius in Nature. This might appear as a book which is about plants and leaves and mountains and rivers. While it is all that, it is much much more than that. Emerson goes from the outer to the inner when he talks about what nature is and what it can do to man. Must read for anyone who is interested in human life, has an appreciation for beauty in the nature and just life itself. RWE at his best, as always!
If you like to be out in the woods alone, you will understand and appreciate this book. It reminds me of my religious experiences with nature when I was working in the Uinta Mountains of Utah and the Rocky Mountains and broken plateaus of Colorado. I am now happily married for 30 years and living in the city I grew up in New Orleans. I will keep rereading this book for the rest of my life to remind me those years out west.
To be read over and over again... answers to all...
To be advised to whoever feels weak..
To recharge your eyes with Nature's beauty and, upon reading the last page feel the need of sharing quality time with those you love...
In his book, Emerson explains how we can find awe and delight in the natural world when we don't lose sight of our inner child. He writes, "The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common."
Emerson's book was so popular that it started a cultural movement in America in which people celebrated America's inspiring beauty through the painting of landscapes. Artist colonies were formed. Artists shared the belief that the landscape was God's expression on earth and that spending time in the outdoors drew the individual closer to God.
My first Emerson read since my school days. Nature is Emerson's first book (1836) and a somewhat harsh review at the time coined the term
'Transcendentalist' ... which later became what Emerson's philosophy was called.
In 'Nature' Emerson equates Nature with man's quest for spiritual oneness. God.
I admit the language (poetry) of the early 1800s when it was written is difficult to grasp and needs to be read slowly. I've decided to re-read this short essay in another year (or so) with the belief that it's depth of meaning will reveal itself one layer at a time.
Thank you for providing these classics in digital form at no cost.
Ralph Waldo Emerson is a complete genius. He's the type of person that only comes along once, maybe, every generation, if even that. I've always considered Emerson to be the greatest genius of the 19h century. I give the 20th century to William S. Burroughs. Emerson's writings are so brilliant that there's no point to even dogear his pages. Every sentence deserves to be dogeared if it were possible. When reading Emerson it is like being clobbered over the head with the brilliance of each sentence. it's nonstop. His brilliance pours from every sentence. I have a book of his collected essays that literally has half (maybe even more) of the sentences underlined or highlighted. Emerson was so far ahead of his time that we're still not even caught up to him and his perceptions even 130 years since his death.
I love nature, I enjoy the perspectives and writing of the past, which is far different than modern writing, so this book is a winner for me, right up my alley. If you like early American writing, mid 1800s, the way they phrased things and wrote, and if you love an introspective exploration of the philosophy of life and living from a natural perspective, this work is for you.
This is a thinkers book. If you want to dive into the depths of the eclectic philosophies, thoughts, ideas and concepts of an early American thinker, you will enjoy this book. If you think evaluation, analysis and long explanations of multiple aspects of life and society are dry and tiring, then this book is not for you.
