Description
Excerpt from History; Self-Reliance; Nature; Spiritual Laws; The American Scholar
Nature, reprinted here, was first published in the second series of Essays in 1844, and is not to be confiised with the more enig matic essay on Nature, in eight brief books, which appeared in 1836. The later essay is based, after a fashion, upon the first, but it is more winning in its method. These four representative papers are followed by the famous Phi Beta Kappa address of 1837 on The American Scholar; an oration which Lowell declared to be an event with Out any parallel in our literary annals, and which Holmes characterized as our intel lectual Declaration of Independence.
