Features: "Essays of Emerson" The author of this book, Emerson, was a thinker, essayist, and poet who shaped the American soul, revered as the pioneer of the modern "American Renaissance." His deep love for nature and his advocacy for the spirit are precisely what most people lack today; he emphasizes personal experience and advocates understanding truth through intuition, enough to enlighten us these global villagers who have long been constrained by reason and dogma. He particularly emphasizes self-reliance, a concept that once propelled America to become a world power and still holds significant practical relevance today.
