摘要
爱默生放弃神职,经由世俗的途径引导了更多的美国国民脱离清教徒的传统,促进了该国人民建立一个自立自主的纯美国色彩的社会。他的思想,主要体现在《论自然》和《自力更生论》两部著述中。梭罗受其影响,实践其理论,创作了《瓦尔登湖》,记录了他回到大自然的经历和感悟。爱默生和梭罗所代表的浪漫主义精神旨趣仍具有现代批判性。
Emerson published Nature in 1836. Thoreau published Walden in 1846, in which he detailed the precious experiences of living alone in nature for twentysix months. Emerson and Thoreau not only in their own century made American life more humanistic, closer to nature, and less rigid religiously, but they continued to exert tremendous influences on contemporary political and ecological activities in the twentieth century.
