Narrative During Books Nature

i would like to meet one (1) person who understands any of this. there’s some good one liners that i agree with, but most of this book just sounded like a crackhead conspiracy theorist standing on a street corner and yelling WE ARE ALL A TRANSLUCENT EYE THAT CONNECTS US TO THE SPIRIT OF THE UNIVERSE like wut...... far too philosophical and spiritual for me. i much prefer works about the sublime.

Evaluation Out Of Books Nature

In wildness is the preservation of the world. ~ThoreauNATURE: After listening to Professor Arnold Weinsteins 3 lectures on Emerson from Classics of American Literature (The Great Courses) I listened to this essay on LibriVox, a free resource which has many audio recordings of books in the public domain. I was very grateful for Weinsteins preliminary explanation although I still found myself at sea so-to-speak when it came to many of the classical and contemporary references and metaphors. Still

My favorite quotes: "These enchantments are medicinal, they sober and heal us." "Cities give not the human senses room enough.""Nature is loved by what is best in us."

For a tiny set of 3 essays, this took me a surprisingly long time to finish reading. It was sort of like reading/watching Shakespeare- you have to snap into reading it, which means you have to be in the flow of reading. I found myself re-reading sections, because I'd reach the end of the page and realize I hadn't absorbed anything. That being said, when I WAS snapped in I loved it. I don't necessarily agree with everything he believed, but much of that could be because he wrote this in the

This was an uneven book. The beginning and the end are easy to read and thought provoking, while the middle is dense and obtuse. These essays are Emerson's attempts to understand why nature is valuable and what our relationship to nature should be. This is a lofty and noble goal, but I think he ultimately fell short. He starts off by stating his premise: that being in nature gives humans unparallelled peace and happiness. He then grapples with to the reasons behind this truth in subsequent

That we are all part of nature and nature isn't different from the divine or us. It is something we experience and through it, we come alive. He writes that it is a shame how we don't fully understand nature's beauty. That we live apart from it and according to the rules society has imposed us, thus we don't

Pantheistic twaddle. Stentorian proclamations are neither evidence nor argument.

This is my first Emerson and it was great. The basic idea is that unlike modern dualistic view of the universe, for Emerson matter and spirit are one, so admiring nature is like admiring Jesus Christ, they both give a spiritual feeling.Emerson loves nature and he expresses this love in such a beautiful peotic way. Nature for Emerson is a manifestation of God (or God himself, it really depends on your interpretation of the book).I loved the chapter on nature and language, it was a beautiful
