Ralph Waldo Emerson: Days of Encounter Little, Brown, 1984 - 748 páginas Ralph Waldo Emerson: days of Encounter is both an authoritative and a very personal biography of one of the most distinguished figures in American literature and a leader in the transcendentalist movement. In this intimate portrait Emerson earns our affection as much as our admiration because, for the first time, he emerges as a man of sympathy as well as high ideals, a man whose courageous struggles were as compelling as his ideas. |
