A compilation of the best essays written by the father of transcendentalism, with selections from Emerson’s lectures on history, art, politics, and more In the words of Harold Bloom, “Emerson's prose is his triumph, both as eloquence and as insight. After Shakespeare, it matches anything else in the language.” Here are Ralph Waldo Emerson's classic essays, including the exhortation to “Self-Reliance,” the embattled realizations of “Circles” and “Experience,” and the groundbreaking achievement of “Nature.” Our most eloquent champion of individualism, Emerson acknowledges at the same time the countervailing pressures of society in American life. Even as he extols what he calls “the great and crescive self,” he dramatizes and records its vicissitudes. Also gathered here are his wide-ranging discourses on history, art, politics, friendship, love, and much more. For almost thirty years, The Library of America has presented America's best and most significant writing in acclaimed hardcover editions. Now, a new series, Library of America Paperback Classics, offers attractive and affordable books that bring The Library of America's authoritative texts within easy reach of every reader. Each book features an introductory essay by a leading writer, as well as a detailed chronology of the author's life and career, an essay on the choice and history of the text, and notes.

Excerpt from Compensation: An Essay The line of thought in the essay can easily be traced. A few para graphs are Wut to dispose of the unlucky preacher who assumed that justice is not rendered in this present world. Life gives this preacher and popular religion the lie. And how 3 There is polarity everywhere; at't'ion and real'tion; a compensating prin ciple, alike in nature, in mechanics, and in man. The farmer must pay for his farm; the President pays dear for his White House. The universe appears in each one of its particles. God is in eve moss and cobweb.
