Synopsis

As an adventuring heretic, Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882) challenged comfortable assumptions about nature, scientific understanding and divine intelligence. The Sage of Concords writings continue to inspire and influence new generations of thinkers and readers as he bridges the wild places of the heart and intellect.

This portable sampler of 60 selections from 30 years of Emersons writings reveals the essence of Emersons spiritual vision. Complementing each passage is an inspirational quote from historical and contemporary luminaries as diverse as Margaret Fuller, the Dalai Lama and Jack Kerouac.

Journey into the mind and heart of this great 19th century author, poet and philosopher whose writings remain relevant and inspiring today.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Chris Highland is an interspiritual chaplain, author, songwriter and poet. He completed his undergraduate studies in religion and philosophy in Seattle, Washington, before settling in the San Francisco Bay Area to complete his Masters degree. A passionate saunterer, he enjoys an intimate relation with Nature in forests, mountains and waterfalls. An avowed heretic (one who seeks new paths), Chris writing reflects his exploration of the edges of human society and his playful search for what Emerson called high, clear and spiritual conversation, to be had by each and every one of us as beggars on the highway. Chris is the author of Meditations of John Muir: Natures Temple, Meditations of Henry David Thoreau: A Light in the Woods, and Meditations of Ralph Waldo Emerson: Into the Green Future, all from Wilderness Press.
