Publisher's Synopsis

""An Address Delivered Before The Senior Class In Divinity College By Ralph Waldo Emerson"" is a book that features a speech given by the famous American philosopher and writer, Ralph Waldo Emerson, to the graduating class of the Harvard Divinity School in 1838. In this speech, Emerson discusses his views on the role of religion in society and the importance of individualism and self-reliance. He critiques the traditional Christian doctrine of the time and calls for a more personal and intuitive approach to spirituality. Emerson's ideas were controversial at the time, but have since become influential in American literature and philosophy. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American thought and the development of transcendentalism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
