About Essays And English Traits
Charles William Eliot assembled The Harvard Classics in 1909 as a record of the "progress of man…from the earliest historical times to the close of the nineteenth century," He said that it could provide "a good substitute for a liberal education in youth to anyone who would read them with devotion, even if he could spare but fifteen minutes a day for reading." It has stood the test of time and provides a valuable base for any reader interested in embarking on a journey through the classics of world literature, poetry, or philosophy. This is the fifth book in the series, Essays and English Traits by Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson is considered by many to be America's first great essayist and this collection includes many of his most famous pieces. The first half were written as essays or for lectures between 1837 and 1844, and the second is from English Traits. His thoughts from an age past continue to remain relevant today and a breath of fresh air to anyone struggling to understand how to live a meaningful life. This edition includes numbered paragraphs to aid in referencing text as well as an easy to use table of contents. A-98 SM Harvard Classics
