Read the excerpt from Walden. Let us spend one day as deliberately as Nature, and not be thrown off the track by every nutshell

and mosquito’s wing that falls on the rails. Let us rise early and fast, or break fast, gently and without perturbation; let company come and let company go, let the bells ring and the children cry—determined to make a day of it. How does Thoreau use the imagery of bells in the excerpt?

Answer:

The bells are a symbol of civilization.

Explanation:

Henry David Thoreau was a transcendentalist who proposed liberty, self-reliance and simple living. 'Walden' is one of his renowned books where he urges his readers to devote their focus towards higher values of life and society. He requests them to move to spirituality. He employs the imagery of 'bells' as symbolic of civilization and says that these 'bells'(modern civilization) lead to anxiety and discontentment in masses. He emphasized the incisive nature of materialism that labor's spirituality and humanity of an individual. Thus, <em>Thoreau uses imagery of 'bells' to reflect it as a symbol of civilization.</em>
