Widely known for putting American intellectualism on the map, Emerson was one of the most influential literary figures of the nineteenth century. Emerson dedicated his life to studying man's relationship with nature and God. This biography covers everything from his childhood to his travels to Europe to meet with the great minds of the time. Supports history-social science standards requiring students to identify common themes in American art and thought as well as transcendentalism and individualism.
