The Ralph Waldo Emerson Journals (1820-1824): Volume 1 (e-Book)
Volume 1 | (1820-1824)
Originally published in Boston from 1904 through 1914, and comprising over 5,000 pages of material.
Emerson used his journals as his “savings bank,” as he called them, to record and then use thoughts and insights for later use in essays, lectures and sermons. The journals hide the seed of an entire essay, but they also reveal more private thoughts and personal observations which never found their way into the Complete Works.
The Digital Journals of Ralph Waldo Emerson is an archive provided by The Ralph Waldo Emerson Institute and www.rwe.org for the use and convenience of interested students of the life and works of America’s Founding Thinker, Ralph Waldo Emerson.
In all, the Journals are a fascinating and valuable record of a lifetime of inspiration and insight. Additional volumes in the Journals can be found here.
