Download or read book A Year with Emerson written by Ralph Waldo Emerson and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 2005 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arranged for daily inspiration, wisdom from one of America's great visionary and philosophical minds. "A chief event of life is that day on which we have encountered a mind that startled us." A Year with Emerson is a feast of 365 such days. Known throughout the world for his cogent, epigrammatic writing, admired as the "George Washington of American Literature," his work is even more enriching in bigger doses. Daily almanac entries present the heart of Ralph Waldo Emerson's ideas and philosophy. Some were written on the very day in which they appear in the book, some are speculations and musings of the season and the natural world, but all are unfailingly wise, still relevant to our modern times. Emerson's mind ranged across the universe even as he traveled the length and breadth of the United States and Europe. With Emerson as a companion and guide, we meet the ideas and personalities he championed and encountered, from Lincoln to John Muir, from Carlyle to Montaigne, and, of course, the close New England circle of Hawthorne, Thoreau, Margaret Fuller, and the Alcotts. With company such as this, and the scope of Emerson's vision, you're sure to encounter rich food for thought every day of the year.
Download or read book Everyday Troubles written by Robert M. Emerson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-04-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From roommate disputes to family arguments, trouble is inevitable in interpersonal relationships. In Everyday Troubles, Robert M. Emerson explores the beginnings and development of the conflicts that occur in our relationships with the people we regularly encounter—family members, intimate partners, coworkers, and others—and the common responses to such troubles. To examine these issues, Emerson draws on interviews with college roommates, diaries documenting a wide range of irritation with others, conversations with people caring for family members suffering from Alzheimer’s, studies of family interactions, neighborly disputes, and other personal accounts. He considers how people respond to everyday troubles: in non-confrontational fashion, by making low-visibility, often secretive, changes in the relationship; more openly by directly complaining to the other person; or by involving a third party, such as friends or family. He then examines how some relational troubles escalate toward extreme and even violent responses, in some cases leading to the involvement of outside authorities like the police or mental health specialists. By calling attention to the range of possible reactions to conflicts in interpersonal relationships, Emerson also reminds us that extreme, even criminal actions often result when people fail to find ways to deal with trouble in moderate, non-confrontational ways. Innovative and insightful, Everyday Troubles is an illuminating look at how we deal with discord in our relationships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Emerson at Home and Abroad At last the day came when I stood at the door of Emerson. I had entered the Divinity College at Cam bridge, and carried a letter from one of his friends; but I was nervous, and it was some relief to hear he was not at home. His little daughter and son, how ever, brought me an invitation from Mrs. Emerson to return soon, and meantime they took me on a beautiful walk, - a walk amid apple trees, where we sat and told tales in a lovely Lost Bower. I was taken to Emerson by his children and gave him my note of introduction. He remembered, and said, Surely you are my Virginian correspondent. With that he extended his hand and welcomed me with a smile his smile, not to be lightly lost by one it has warmed. For me, who never before had seen a great man, who yet in my minority was cut off from every relative and had alienated every early friend, this wel coming word and smile was the break of a new day. I could not answer. Many years after I read that one in paradise was asked how he got there and replied, One day as Buddha passed by he smiled upon me. Twenty-eight years later, on that spot where I first met Emerson I parted from him to see him no more. It was with the old grasp of hand, and with that smile on his face to win which would at any time have meant to me success. It is before me now, and shall not be changed to a frown by any sentence in this little book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Emerson: Poet and Thinker Embodying the modern spirit are either the direct or the indirect result of his attitude toward things of the mind, that it seems worth while to emphasise his individual message once more, even at the risk of repeating much that has been said with more authority. The readers of the present genera tion hardly can turn many of his pages without sur prise that he so indubitably belongs to them that he is so freshly inspiring after half a century of rapidly changing manners and customs. His firm morality and the gracious art with which he has made morality beautiful are as valuable to-day as when his presence in the world gave a personal in terest to his writings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Emerson Calendar, 1905 One has not to read far in the essays and poems of Eulerson to understand that as he saw it the simple life was not governed by a definite formula, or a series of rules about personal expenses, diet, and the return to nature, - whatever that may mean. To Emerson the simple life is the life in the spirit; it expresses an attitude of mind; it is a tendency, and not a fixed con dition. To put oneself in harmony with the supreme laws of the universe, which are the laws of righteous ness; to respefl one's own individuality and the indi viduality of others; to be receptive before one is ex pressive; to have faith in the eternal and to look for perfeflion, but not to be impatient if it come not at one's bidding; to keep an open mind, unyielding courage, unvarying tolerance, and immutable loyalty to high ideals; to make friendship a religion, and love a sacrament, - these are the essentials of Emerson's doctrine; and they who have once known them in their fulness may well look askance at the suggestions of less inspired disciples.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ralph Waldo Emerson Emerson called upon her, she wrote, He came with a sunbeam on his countenance. He is a born gentleman. George William Curtis said, A smile broke over his face like day over the sky, and, At Emerson's house it is always morning. How could it have been otherwise with a man who loved humanity; whose whole life was spent in making the world happier and better; whose every sentence was full of hope and sweetness and courage.

Download or read book Emerson written by Robert D. Richardson Jr. and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-04-22 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recipient of the Francis Parkman Prize from the Society of American Historians Ralph Waldo Emerson is one of the most important figures in the history of American thought, religion, and literature. The vitality of his writings and the unsettling power of his example continue to influence us more than a hundred years after his death. Now Robert D. Richardson Jr. brings to life an Emerson very different from the old stereotype of the passionless Sage of Concord. Drawing on a vast amount of new material, including correspondence among the Emerson brothers, Richardson gives us a rewarding intellectual biography that is also a portrait of the whole man. These pages present a young suitor, a grief-stricken widower, an affectionate father, and a man with an abiding genius for friendship. The great spokesman for individualism and self-reliance turns out to have been a good neighbor, an activist citizen, a loyal brother. Here is an Emerson who knew how to laugh, who was self-doubting as well as self-reliant, and who became the greatest intellectual adventurer of his age. Richardson has, as much as possible, let Emerson speak for himself through his published works, his many journals and notebooks, his letters, his reported conversations. This is not merely a study of Emerson's writing and his influence on others; it is Emerson's life as he experienced it. We see the failed minister, the struggling writer, the political reformer, the poetic liberator. The Emerson of this book not only influenced Thoreau, Fuller, Whitman, Dickinson, and Frost, he also inspired Nietzsche, William James, Baudelaire, Marcel Proust, Virginia Woolf, and Jorge Luis Borges. Emerson's timeliness is persistent and striking: his insistence that literature and science are not separate cultures, his emphasis on the worth of every individual, his respect for nature. Richardson gives careful attention to the enormous range of Emerson's readings—from Persian poets to George Sand—and to his many friendships and personal encounters—from Mary Moody Emerson to the Cherokee chiefs in Boston—evoking both the man and the times in which he lived. Throughout this book, Emerson's unquenchable vitality reaches across the decades, and his hold on us endures.
Download or read book Self reliance written by Ralph Waldo Emerson and published by FV Éditions. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Every great man is a unique". R.W Emerson told us that Self-confidence is always about independence : "What I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think. This rule, equally arduous in actual and in intellectual life, may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness. It is the harder because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it. It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude."
