Raplh Waldo Emerson
Emerson is the father of the transcendentalist movement. He speaks his mind in his essays and poems in this book which also includes "On Nature."
He shows his beliefs on himself and the world around him and is not afraid to be criticized for his work.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

Masterful writing
Contrary to the opinions of many, I do not find Emerson boring or difficult to read-quite the contrary, actually. I have never read non-fiction prose so poetic and rapturous as Emerson's; each sentence is full of depth, and his use of symbolism and imagery and the flow of his sentences makes his writing a delight to the mind. Those who do not attempt "creative reading" will not understand Emerson, but those who enjoy mulling over an author's words and divining hidden meanings (or simply take pleasure in masterful use of the English language) will greatly enjoy Emerson's work-at least I do! Although I disagree with Emerson on many issues, his work is also very intelectually stimulating and challenges the reader to think. Much of his philosophy and insight is also "spot on" in many respects.
