The Transcendentalist/The Conservative (annotated) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781523621774)

The Transcendentalist/The Conservative is a compilation of two classic philosophy essays by Ralph Waldo Emerson. The first thing we have to say respecting what are called new views here in New England, at the present time, is, that they are not new, but the very oldest of thoughts cast into the mould of these new times. The light is always identical in its composition, but it falls on a great variety of objects, and by so falling is first revealed to us, not in its own form, for it is formless, but in theirs; in like manner, thought only appears in the objects it classifies.
