This study offers the first comprehensive account of Emerson's philosophy since his philosophical rehabilitation began in the late 1970s.

Recenzje

"All serious readers of Emerson's writings will gain insight from Joseph Urbas's 'historical reconstruction' of Emerson's bottom-line philosophical commitments. By closely engaging an exceptionally wide breadth of primary material-one simply unseen in previous philosophical interpretations of Emerson-The Philosophy of Ralph Waldo Emerson brings to bear the weight of his published and unpublished corpus on the topics of metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, esthetics, religion, and politics."
