About this listen

 Have you ever read the works of Henry David Thoreau or explored the transcendentalist movement of the 19th century? Ralph Waldo Emerson and Thoreau were two pioneering voices at the heart of this influential spiritual and philosophical movement. In this presentation, Roger examines their writings, their personal lives, and the lasting impact they had on American culture.

This is the fifth in a series of 13 presentations that explores Hermetic American history by focusing on a diverse group of hermetic figures spanning architecture, poetry, drama, religion, esoteric philosophy, and occultism. These presentations were delivered by Roger Weir in the spring of 1982 in Los Angeles, California.
