The Transcendentalist movement began in 1830s-1840s New England as a response to intellectualism. Transcendentalists believed in finding knowledge through experience, nature, spirituality, and intuition rather than rationalism. Prominent Transcendentalist writers included Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Walt Whitman, and Margaret Fuller. Thoreau famously lived for two years in a small cabin by Walden Pond, chronicling his experiences with nature in his influential book Walden.

The Rape of the Lock was written by Pope to chide gently the Fermor family when Lord Petre cut off a lock of Arabella Fermor’s hair on a certain fateful day and such dire consequences followed. Pope started something that culminated into a piece of literature that has remained to this day a leading example of the mock epic satire.

Transcendentalism and Indian Philosophy, ReligionHina Parmar
Transcendentalism was a movement in the early to mid-19th century that embraced new ideas in literature, religion, and culture. It was a protest to intellectualism and the doctrine of the Unitarian Church. It was a belief that people can reach a spiritual state by utilizing their intuition, and not by learned doctrines and religious teachings.
The period from roughly 1830 through the 1860's saw the growth of one of the most exotic intellectual movements ever to take root in American soil. Led by Ralph Waldo Emerson, the New England Transcendentalists mounted an attack on social, intellectual, religious and political beliefs.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. What is Transcendentalism?
Transcendentalism may be defined as a system of
philosophy where one seeks knowledge through
experience, nature, the self, spirit and intuition. It was a
movement during the 1830’s -1840’s that began as a
response to intellectualism.
3. Birthplace
Transcendentalism was born in New England, mainly
because of the intellectual movement associated with
Harvard University and The Universalist Church.
4. Core Belief
Transcendentalists believed in the inherent goodness of
man and that the Universalist Church and the Intellects
of the day corrupted man in his purest form.
They sought a way back to this purist form of goodness
through meditations, writing, self realization, and
communion with nature. They strove for self-reliance as
well.
5. Writers
Some of the most famous Transcendentalists are:
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Henry David Thoreau
Walt Whitman
Margaret Fuller
Nathaniel Hawthorne
6. Romantic Era 1850-1920
There were several traits of Romanticism.
Freedom
Creativity
Experimentation
This was true in music, art, literature and dance.
7. Poets
Some of the more popular poets of the Romantic Era
were in two differing realms: those who wrote with a
focus on nature and those who wrote in a dark style.
They were inspired by nature, religion and patriotism.
8. Self Check:
What is the basis of Transcendentalism?
Where was the birthplace of The Transcendentalist
Movement?
What was it in response to?
Who were some of the more prolific writers mentioned?
What things inspired the poets and authors?
9. A closer look…
Writers during this era often concerned themselves with
nature and social causes. For example, Henry David
Thoreau spent a night in jail as a result of not paying his
poll tax. He refused to pay it because the money went
toward funding the Mexican American War, which he
opposed vehemently.
They wrote, they spoke out and their lives often
reflected the beliefs they held onto.
10. Emerson & Thoreau
Emerson and Thoreau were very good friends. They both
lived in Concord, Massachusetts and were quite vocal.
They both wrote essays and journals, but while Emerson
was more of a speaker, Thoreau was more of a walking
symbol of the Transcendental movement.
11. Thoreau’s Walden
Henry David Thoreau spent two years of his life
recording his thoughts and daily life while living in the
small cabin he built by hand on Emerson’s property at
Walden Pond.
Every thing that Thoreau ate, wore, used as a tool, or
slept in, sat on, and ate at were built by him from the
materials given to us by nature.
His famous Book of writing, On Walden Pond, describes
all that he did and accomplished during these two years
of seclusion.
13. Thoreau, Con’t.
While living at Walden Pond, Thoreau not only recorded
his activities, but he recorded his musings on nature,
God, life, and the inner self.
He used much figurative language to describe his time at
Walden Pond and brought the world to life with these
words.
“Though it is now dark, the wind still blows and roars in
the wood, the waves still dash, and some creatures lull
the rest with their notes. The repose is never complete.
The wildest animals do not repose, but seek their prey
now; the fox, and skunk, and rabbit, now roam the fields
and woods without fear. They are Nature's watchmen —
links which connect the days of animated life.”
