Explanation:
The central ideas found in Society and Solitude and Chapter I of Nature is, both passages stress the importance of individual contemplation.
Answer: Option A.
Explanation:
‘Society and Solitude’ and “Nature’ are both an essay written by the widely known Ralph Waldo Emerson. The former one talks about the notions of society and solitude, while the latter one talks about the euphony between humans and the natural world. But one idea which links both the passage is the importance of individual contemplation.
In ‘Society and Solitude’, Emerson suggests that self contemplation leads to enlightenment. Similarity in ‘Nature’ also, he stresses that one should get rid of the materialistic things and enjoy a pure relation with one’s own thoughts, with nature, and the universe.
Emerson addresses the individual contemplation in both passages as ‘the sublime’, the state of supreme being.
