Description
Essential for any collection of Americana, this volume is the first and only comprehensive bibliography of works on the Transcendentalists of the nineteenth century and their major contemporary critics.
The first section of the volume surveys the Transcendental movement and its historical context. The essays that follow evaluate the major figures, including such luminaries as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Margaret Fuller, Theodore Parker, Elizabeth Palmer Peabody, and Henry David Thoreau. A final section discusses how Transcendentalism influenced or offended certain writers, including Emily Dickinson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Herman Melville, Edgar Allan Poe, and Walt Whitman.
