Transcendentalism is an American artistic and philosophical movement of the mid nineteenth century, revolved around Ralph Waldo Emerson. Other critical visionaries were Henry David Thoreau, Margaret Fuller, Amos Bronson Alcott, Frederic Henry Hedge, and Theodore Parker. Emerson and Thoreau looked for this connection in isolation in the midst of nature, and in their composition.
Nature presently winds up specific: this tree, this fowl, this condition of the lake on a late spring night or winter morning turn into Thoreau's subjects. Thoreau is open. He gets himself "all of a sudden neighbor to" as opposed to a seeker of winged creatures ; and he figures out how to stay in a house that is no more and no not exactly a spot where he can legitimately sit. Thoreau discovers that he can have and utilize a homestead with more fulfillment than the rancher, who is engrossed with encouraging his family and growing his activities.
