This book tries to approach Emerson’s way of thinking, or his philosophical method, in his writings and Transcendentalism. The motto of Emerson’s thinking is: “Go abroad and mix in affairs” (Montaigne, also known as “the Skeptic”), since he observes no national boundaries, and absorbs the foreign and the different.Target Audience:Primarily graduate students and upper-level undergraduates of literature and comparative literature. Also, scholars in the field of the cultural studies and the American Transcendentalism, and general readers familiar with major American and European writers and philosophers like Emerson, Thoreau, Plato, Heidegger, Derrida, and Levinas.
