Acerca de esta escucha
Transcendentalism embodies the concept that people have a deeper and more profound understanding of the world around them than simply by what they can glimpse with their senses. In this collection of essays and poems, the works of three transcendentalist authors are shared, each with their own impressions and opinions supporting the movement.
The first, Henry David Thoreau, reflects on the idea of simple living yet living deliberately in Walden. He expresses the importance of embarking on a journey of identifying what type of life to live. In Civil Disobedience, Thoreau declares his opinions on government and its inefficiency and uselessness, instead arguing that the people have a right and duty to rebel. Walking, Thoreau’s final publication before his death, is a collection of writings of his thoughts on nature. Written with a visionary tone, the author expresses to the listener the importance of remaining alert to nature.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, a 19th-century transcendentalist philosopher, explores self-sufficiency as a virtue in the essay entitled Self-Reliance. Emerson impresses the value of individual thought, instinct, and action. In Nature, a lengthy essay about the order of the universe, Emerson shares his thoughts about how nature holds the keys to unlocking its mysteries.
Lastly, Walt Whitman, considered one of the most influential poets in American history and heavily influenced by Ralph Waldo Emerson, uses religious symbolism and allegory in Leaves of Grass to share his thoughts on the human body and the power of the human mind.
This collection of some of the greatest and most influential minds of the literary world will inspire you to learn more about the transcendentalism movement and listen to each of the essays and poems in their original version.

In 1845 Henry David Thoreau, one of the principal New England Transcendentalists, left the small town of Concord for the country. Beside the lake of Walden he built himself a log cabin and returned to nature, to observe and reflect – while surviving on eight dollars a year. From this experience emerged Walden, one of the great classics of American literature.

The most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes, the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his or her own instincts and ideas. It is the source of one of Emerson's most famous quotations, "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." This essay is a considered a watershed moment in which transcendentalism became a major cultural movement. An American classic.

Historia
Robert Sapolsky’s Behave, his now classic account of why humans do good and why they do bad, pointed toward an unsettling conclusion: We may not grasp the precise marriage of nature and nurture that creates the physics and chemistry at the base of human behavior, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Now, in Determined, Sapolsky takes his argument all the way, mounting a brilliant (and in his inimitable way, delightful) full-frontal assault on the pleasant fantasy that there is some separate self telling our biology what to do.

Historia
In 1855, Walt Whitman published, at his own expense, the first edition of Leaves of Grass, a visionary volume of 12 poems. Showing the influence of a uniquely American form of mysticism known as Transcendentalism, the writing is distinguished by an explosively innovative free-verse style and previously unmentionable subject matter. Exalting nature, celebrating the human body, and praising the senses and sexual love, this monumental work, now a classic of American poetry, was condemned as immoral upon publication.

The Metaphysical Club was an informal group that met in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1872, to talk about ideas. Its members included Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., future associate justice of the United States Supreme Court; William James, the father of modern American psychology; and Charles Sanders Peirce, logician, scientist, and the founder of semiotics. The Club was probably in existence for about nine months. No records were kept. The one thing we know that came out of it was an idea - an idea about ideas. This book is the story of that idea.

A belief in free will touches nearly everything that human beings value. It is difficult to think about law, politics, religion, public policy, intimate relationships, morality—as well as feelings of remorse or personal achievement—without first imagining that every person is the true source of his or her thoughts and actions. And yet the facts tell us that free will is an illusion.

Historia
> Walking is not as well known as Thoreau's other works Walden, The Maine Woods, and Civil Disobedience. But it is a good place to start exploring his writing because it was his last book, in 1862, published by the Atlantic Monthly shortly after his death. It is less well known because it is general, as opposed to singular, in focus. It is his summing up of his thoughts on life: One should saunter through life and take notice; one need not go far.

Ralph Waldo Emerson was an American essayist, lecturer, philosopher, abolitionist, and poet who led the transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century. He was a prescient critic of the countervailing pressures of society, and his ideology was disseminated through dozens of published essays and more than 1,500 public lectures. Emerson gradually moved away from the religious and social beliefs of his contemporaries, formulating and expressing the philosophy of transcendentalism in his 1836 essay Nature.

Historia
The most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes, the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his or her own instincts and ideas. It is the source of one of Emerson's most famous quotations, "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." This essay is a considered a watershed moment in which transcendentalism became a major cultural movement. An American classic.

Perfect for short attention spans!
I have a short attention span, so the variety of texts in this audiobook is a big plus. Having excerpts from different essays and poems keeps things interesting. The narrator does a good job conveying the passion of these writers. I especially enjoyed Thoreau's thoughts on nature in 'Walking'. This audiobook is a great way to get a state of Transcendentalism ideas without a huge time commitment.

Simply loved it
What I love most is how timeless the messages feel—these authors make you want to slow down, appreciate the world around you, and maybe even question a few things about society and yourself. It’s not a fast read, but that’s kind of the point. If you're looking to reconnect with nature and find a bit of peace in the chaos, this collection has a lot to offer.

Deeply Intrigued
I am about halfway through the listen and I am fascinated by what I am listening to. Transcendentalism is a topic I aim to learn more about. These impressive works offer different perspectives on how we could be viewing the world/environment we live in and how we live our lives. I have listened to Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass" before and I was particularly moved by the parallels with Thoreau and Emerson's works. 10/10 I will recommend this.

Interesting ideas
Before picking up this book, I had never even heard of the idea of transcendentalism before. After listening to the book I feel like I know everything I need to about it and I feel that Emerson’s viewpoints on it are quite interesting.

Slow Down To Enjoy Life
Transcendentalism: Exemplary Collection of Essays and Poems is a thoughtful listen. The collection's connection with spirituality, nature, and ourselves is evident. I would liken this to a focus in the present day on mindfulness and living in the moment instead of always rushing and trying to accomplish our goals. This is a lengthy listen but helpful if broken down into chunks to allow yourself to process the information.

Thought provoking
Thoreau’s focus on simplicity really makes you want to slow down and pay attention to the world around you. Emerson’s ideas about trusting yourself hit hard, especially in a world that’s so focused on fitting in. And Whitman’s poetry? It’s just alive, full of energy and meaning. If you’re into thought-provoking reads, this one's worth checking out.

A Masterpiece of Transcendentalist Thought.
This collection brings together the transformative works of Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Walt Whitman. I found that it offered profound insights into transcendentalism. Thoreau’s *Walden* and *Civil Disobedience* explore deliberate living and the power of rebellion, while *Walking* celebrates nature’s beauty. Emerson’s *Self-Reliance* and *Nature* champion individualism and the mysteries of the natural world. Whitman’s *Leaves of Grass* uses poetic symbolism to celebrate the mind and body’s potential. These timeless works inspired deeper thought, authenticity, and a connection with nature. A great read for seekers of wisdom and literary brilliance.

Great Collection, Narrated Very Well
I enjoyed listening to these classics by the primarily contributors of the Transcendentalism Movement.
From what I’ve gathered, some key aspects of the movement are spiritually is personal, emphasis on nature, simplistic living and opposing materialism. The introduction did a good job helping shed light on the movement.
I highly recommend listening to these powerful books.
