The Transcendentalist Movement refers to a philosophical and spiritual movement that arose in the United States between the 1820s-1840s. It was inspired by a number of other schools of thought, such as Christian Unitarianism, Hinduism, and the philosophy of Immanuel Kant. Transcendentalists emphasize the role of the individual and the search of individual freedom. They believe that <u>the individual is at its best when it's free and independent, especially from the influence of institutions or tradition, which they claim corrupt the individual mind and cloud its judgment</u>. Some of the best known transcendentalists were figures such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Margaret Fuller.
