Emerson & Eros by Len Gougeon [Book]

view/request

Emerson is considered to be a man of mythic proportions. His influence on his era was incalculable and extends forward into our own. What made a man who was unremarkable and uninspired into a legend who started a philosophy (Transcendentalism) and spurred others into action on large causes (women’s suffrage, anti-slavery, etc…)? Gougeon explores these tantalizing questions.
