Description
xIf any movement in the West was deeply influenced by the philosophy and wisdom of India, it was American Transcendentalism of the nineteenth century. It emerged as a strong reactionary movement, braving the currents of British empiricism, scientific naturalism, and dialectical materialism of Europe.
Breaking away from the materialistic influence of Europe on an emerging American society, American Transcendentalists, led by Emerson, Thoreau, and Whitman, turned to Indian philosophic thought. However, Thoreau excelled the others in his enthusiasm for Vedic literature.
Henry David Thoreau was a multifaceted personality: writer, poet, thinker, moralist, rebel, reformer, naturalist, and ecologist. His renowned works Walden and Civil Disobedience stand out as a metaphor for high thinking, exceptional insight, and simple living.
