Emerson wrote Nature as a response to the birth of modernity, an era of possesion and exploitation. While the Gold Rush made thousands of people moved to the west to get rich fast, Emerson writes an essay about the beauty of the unnatainable, an example of this is clearly shown when he writes about the stars:  <em>One might think the atmosphere was made transparent with this design, to give man, in the heavenly bodies, the perpetual presence of the sublime.</em>

From the historical data we know that "<em>North Carolina's gold-belt counties produced the nation's gold supply from 1803 to 1846." </em>That is clearly a lot of gold, the land in the American West was obviously rich, but as Emerson says: <em>The charming landscape which I saw this morning, is indubitably made up of some twenty or thirty farms. Miller owns this field, Locke that, and Manning the woodland beyond. But none of them owns the landscape. There is a property in the horizon which no man has but he whose eye can integrate all the parts, that is, the poet. This is the best part of these men's farms, yet to this their warranty-deeds give no title.  </em>Meaning that you can own the land, or the weath that it produces, but the true value of all comes from true open-hearted, child-like contemplation, being able "to inegrate all the parts" is the real treasure of man.

Which colonists does Crevecoeur despise as “barbarous?”
ankoles [38]
The correct answer is <span>frontiersmen 

He believed that people should go to the United States and get their own piece of land and work on it and live well. He believed that frontiersmen were selfish and greedy and just wanted to take more and more and were thus exploring the frontier and  that it would ruin the society because again people would get too much land and power.</span>
