Ralph Waldo Emerson

This final volume marks the twilight years of this American writer's life. In the seventh decade of his life, Emerson was still a prolific writer and speaker, publishing "Society and Solitude" (1870), "Parnassus" (1875), and "Letters and Societal Aims" (1876) and lecturing frequently at Harvard University. Since Columbia University Press first published Ralph L. Rusk's six-volume set of "The Letters" in 1939, some 2000 new letters have been uncovered. These letters, including many to Henry David Thoreau, William Henry Furness, Margaret Fuller, and Thomas Carlyle among others offer an intimate portrait of Emerson. In the final four volumes of this edition, Tilton provides detailed annotations to create a running documentary history of Ralph Waldo Emerson's life and times. Volume Ten includes a name index covering volumes seven through ten, supplementing the index to the first six volumes included at the end of Volume Six.

This is the penultimate volume in the continuation of Ralph L. Rusk's 1939 edition of Emerson's letters. Vol 9 covers the years 1860-1869, when Emerson switched from using small, local publishers to the prestigious firm of Ticknor and Fields. This edition contains correspondence with the major political figures of the time, including Henry David Thoreau, Samuel Gray Ward, Hermann Grimm, John Sterling and William Henry Furness. It also contains new information about Emerson's response to Thoreau's death in 1862.

”Alt, vi anså for fastsat, ryster og rasler; og litteraturer, byer, klimaer og religioner slipper deres fundamenter og danser for vores øjne.” Ralph Waldo Emerson skrev det indflydelsesrige essay "Cirkler" i 1841, der sætter ham ind i en naturfilosofisk tradition – fra antikken til i dag – der anser cirklen som metafor for en kosmisk orden, hvor alt er forbundet og i bevægelse. Universet, naturen, det levende og vores tanker – intet er permanent, end ikke sandheden. Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) var en amerikansk digter, filosof og abolitionist, der i sit essay Nature fra 1836 formulerer transcendentalismens filosofi, som han blev en ledende figur for. Walt Whitman kaldte Emerson sin »mester« og Friedrich Nietzsche skriver, at han var »den mest begavede af amerikanerne«. I essayet Cirkler ser vi Emerson som digterfilosof, der i et litterært potent sprog glider ubesværet fra at beskrive et spirituelt forhold til naturen, ja, hele kosmos, til skarp samfundskritik.
