Item Details

Description

4V THE WRITINGS OF HENRY DAVID THOREAU Gilt Riverside Edition Concord And Merrimack Rivers Maine Woods Cape Cod Excursions American Literature Essays Philosophy Naturalist

Book Details: This set of four uniformly bound volumes from the Riverside Edition of The Writings of Henry David Thoreau includes volumes I, III, IV and IX. These titles are bound in green cloth with gilt spine lettering. Titles found in this collection include:

Concord and Merrimack Rivers
The Maine Woods
Cape Cod
Excursions

Henry David Thoreau (July 12, 1817 â€“ May 6, 1862) was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian. A leading transcendentalist, Thoreau is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay "Civil Disobedience" (originally published as "Resistance to Civil Government"), an argument for disobedience to an unjust state.

Thoreau's books, articles, essays, journals, and poetry amount to more than 20 volumes. Among his lasting contributions are his writings on natural history and philosophy, in which he anticipated the methods and findings of ecology and environmental history, two sources of modern-day environmentalism. His literary style interweaves close observation of nature, personal experience, pointed rhetoric, symbolic meanings, and historical lore, while displaying a poetic sensibility, philosophical austerity, and Yankee attention to practical detail. He was also deeply interested in the idea of survival in the face of hostile elements, historical change, and natural decay; at the same time he advocated abandoning waste and illusion in order to discover life's true essential needs.
Condition / Notes: These volumes are in exceptional condition, with minimal indications of age and wear. The bindings and text blocks are sound. Text is clear and crisp through mild age toning.
