ALL RIGHTS RESERVED FIVE HUNDRED AND THIRTY COPIES PRINTED NUMBER /3f,^ [V] PREFACE In this compilation the same general plan has been followed as in my Bibliography of Lowell. AUj that was then said about the difficulties and hmitations of such work might be repeated here. No one who has had experience in biblio- graphical work will expect completeness or absence of errors. Added experience on the part of the compiler, it is hoped, has made this book more accurate and more nearly complete. The aim has been to give a practically complete list of Emerson's writings, and, as far as may be, to set forth the various editions, translations, and other changes through which they have passed. The chronological order has been followed; and every magazine, review, pamphlet, and book pub- lication known to the compiler has been listed. Care has been taken to give the exact contents of the title-page of each separate publication. It has not always been possible to do this, however, in the case of translations and minor English re- publications. The various editions, translations, reviews, and auction sales have been grouped to- gether. It has been thought best to group together the works edited by Emerson and those for which he wrote prefaces or introductions. This is the only exception to the chronological order of arrange- ment of his single works. [vi] The single titles have been placed together in alphabetical order. The first printed form of each poem and essay is recorded, and the more important subsequent changes. No attempt has been made to follow each piece through the whole succession of its appearances. In this list the prose titles have been printed in roman, the poems in italic, and the titles of books in small capitals. All the articles and books of a biographical nature have been grouped together alphabetically under the name of the author or the publication in which each appeared. This includes letters and reminiscences; and the list is of a rich and varied character. A glance at this book will indicate that Emerson has been much more frequently translated than Lowell, perhaps more frequently than any other American author. The many foreign titles appear- ing throughout the book show only in part the translations published, and what has been said con- cerning Emerson in other countries. The equip- ment of our libraries has not permitted a com- plete enumeration of translations and critical notices. The list of critical articles and books about Emerson shows very definitely how much atten- tion has been attracted to him almost from the outset of his career. He has been praised and criticised, admired and misunderstood, as almost no other man of his time. I wish here to acknowledge my great indebted- ness in the compilation of both the Emerson and the Lowell Bibliographies to the Boston Public [vii] Library, the Boston Athenaeum, and the Library of Harvard University. I am especially indebted to Miss Mary H. Wall [now Mrs. John Henry Gill] of the Boston Athenaeum for valuable aid. Her lists of the works of Emerson and Lowell prepared for that Ubrary have greatly facilitated my labors. Other libraries of which I have made use are those in Concord, Mass. ; and the Astor, Lenox, and Columbia University, in New York city. In New York the private collection of Mr. Stephen H. Wakeman was generously opened to furnish me aid. I am also under great obligations to Mr. Wil- liam T. Newton of Boston for the use of his Emerson collection, the most extensive and com- plete I have found anywhere. It includes rare editions and many books about Emerson, as well as magazine and review articles and newspaper cuttings. He made extensive preparations for an Emerson bibliography, the results of which he has placed without reserve at my service. His collection has been of invaluable aid to me. Through the generosity of Dr. Samuel A. Jones, Ann Arbor, Mich., I have had placed at my dis- posal the extensive collections of notes made by him in preparation for an Emerson bibliography. These have enlarged my lists of book titles, maga- zine articles, and especially newspaper notices of Emerson's death and work. My debt is also very considerable to Miss Har- riet Brackett of Boston for aid in completing the lists of foreign magazine, review, and newspaper articles, and the translations into German, French, [viii] and other languages. Her expert experience in the Library of Columbia University has been at my service, and that part of the book owes much to her skill and patient attention to details. My debt to her is also large for persistent and adequate aid in aU parts of the book. Not least of the helps given me are those of my daughter, Miss Florence Cooke, whose aid in the exploration of Ubraries, and in the verification of references, has been invaluable. Last, but not least, I have been placed under obligations by Mr. Edward Waldo Emerson for suggestions and additional items of interest, for reading the proof-sheets of the lists of titles, and for making helpful corrections. The same kind of generous service has been rendered by Mr. Patrick Kevin Foley, the well-known Boston bibliographer; and by Mr. George H. Sargent, bibliographer of the "Boston Evening Tran- script." In fact, therefore, the present compilation is the product of a large amount of cooperative effort. Such a work could be rendered fairly complete by no other process.

Copyright © 2019 The Trustees of Reservations ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION PROVENANCE Transcendental manuscript materials were first acquired by Clara Endicott Sears beginning in 1914 for her Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, Massachusetts. Sears became interested in the Transcendentalists after acquiring land in Harvard and restoring the Fruitlands Farmhouse. Materials continued to be collected by the museum throughout the 20th century. In 2016, Fruitlands Museum became The Trustees’ 116th reservation, and these manuscript materials were relocated to the Archives & Research Center in Sharon, Massachusetts. In Harvard, the Fruitlands Museum site continues to display the objects that Sears collected. The museum features four separate collections of significant Shaker, Native American, Transcendentalist, and American art and artifacts. The property features a late 18th century farmhouse that was once home to the writer Louisa May Alcott and her family. Today it is a National Historic Landmark. The papers in this collection were acquired through both purchases and donations prior to 1929.

  • The Dial and Transcendentalist Music Criticism” by WESLEY T

    The Dial and Transcendentalist Music Criticism” by WESLEY T

    The ‘yearnings of the heart to the Infinite’: The Dial and Transcendentalist Music Criticism” by WESLEY T. MOTT “When my hoe tinkled against the stones, that music echoed to the woods and the sky . and I remembered with as much pity as pride, if I remembered at all, my acquaintances who had gone to the city to attend the oratorios.” So wrote contrary Henry Thoreau in “Walden” (1854; [Princeton UP, 1971], p. 159). His literary acquaintances, in fact, had made important contributions to the emergence of music criticism in Boston a decade earlier in the Transcendentalist periodical, the Dial. Published from 1840 to 1844 and edited by Margaret Fuller and Ralph Waldo Emerson, the Dial promised readers in the first issue to give voice to a “new spirit” and to “new views and the dreams of youth,” to aid “the progress of a revolution . united only in a common love of truth, and love of its work” (the Dial, 4 vols. [rpt. New York: Russell & Russell, 1961], 1:1-2. The definitive study is Joel Myerson, The New England Transcendentalists and the Dial: A History of the Magazine and Its Contributors [Rutherford, NJ: Fairleigh Dickinson UP, 1980]). Featuring poetry, essays, reviews, and translations on an eclectic range of literary, philosophical, theological, and aesthetic topics, the Dial published only four articles substantially about music: one by John Sullivan Dwight, one by John Francis Tuckerman, and two by Fuller (excluding her lengthy study Romaic and Rhine Ballads [3:137-80] and brief commentary scattered in review articles). Each wrote one installment of an annual Dial feature for 1840-42—a review of the previous winter’s concerts in Boston.
  • George Eliot (1819-1880)

    George Eliot (1819-1880)

    GEORGE ELIOT (1819-1880) Chronology 1819 Mary Anne Evans born at at Arbury Farm in Warwickshire. Her father, Robert Evans, was an overseer at the Arbury Hall estate, and Eliot kept house for him after her mother died in 1836. Her father remarried and Mary Ann had a good relationship with her two stepbrothers, particularly with Isaac, who played marbles with her and took her fishing. 1824-35 At the age of five she was sent to a local boarding school while Isaac was sent to school in Coventry. She became sternly Christian after her strict religious schooling. 1836 Her mother died and her elder sister married the following year so Mary Ann became her father´s housekeeper and companion. She continue to learn languages and in her own words: "used to go about like an owl, to the great disgust of my brother". 1841 Her father moved to Coventry hoping her daughter would meet a potential husband there. Their next- door neighbour, Mrs Abijah Pears, was the sister of Charles Bray, an enthusiastic social reformer and freethinker. Eliot made friends with the members of the Bray family, and began reading such works as An Enquiry into the Origins of Christianity. Mary Ann soon informed her father that she had lost her faith in Church doctrine. She soon gave up her Evangelicism in favor of a non-sectarian spirituality based on a sense of common humanity. She refused to attend church with her father and began work on a translation from German of Life of Jesus, a rationalist reexamination of some Bible sections.

  • James Russell Lowell - Poems

    James Russell Lowell - Poems

    Classic Poetry Series James Russell Lowell - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive James Russell Lowell(22 February 1819 – 12 August 1891) James Russell Lowell was an American Romantic poet, critic, editor, and diplomat. He is associated with the Fireside Poets, a group of New England writers who were among the first American poets who rivaled the popularity of British poets. These poets usually used conventional forms and meters in their poetry, making them suitable for families entertaining at their fireside. Lowell graduated from Harvard College in 1838, despite his reputation as a troublemaker, and went on to earn a law degree from Harvard Law School. He published his first collection of poetry in 1841 and married Maria White in 1844. He and his wife had several children, though only one survived past childhood. The couple soon became involved in the movement to abolish slavery, with Lowell using poetry to express his anti-slavery views and taking a job in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as the editor of an abolitionist newspaper. After moving back to Cambridge, Lowell was one of the founders of a journal called The Pioneer, which lasted only three issues. He gained notoriety in 1848 with the publication of A Fable for Critics, a book-length poem satirizing contemporary critics and poets. The same year, he published The Biglow Papers, which increased his fame. He would publish several other poetry collections and essay collections throughout his literary career. Maria White died in 1853, and Lowell accepted a professorship of languages at Harvard in 1854.

DOWNES Among the pioneers in the perennial migration of winter visitors to Florida was Ralph Waldo Emerson, the beloved philosopher of American ideals. In 1827, ten years before the flowering of the stirring essays on “The American Scholar” and ”Self-Reliance,” the unknown tubercular youth sailed into castle- shadowed St. Augustine harbor seeking the healing climate of the newly-acquired Florida Territory. During his ten-week stay the future scholar as a matter of habit recorded his random thoughts and his impressions of life around him in a series of journal entries, notebook jottings, and letters. These writings, now published in relative com- pleteness, constitute an important historical source, first be- cause of their record of Emerson’s momentous meeting with the atheistic Napoleonic prince-in-exile, Achille Murat; and second because of the light they throw upon social life in the old Spanish town just following American occupation.

    Poetry in America: From the Mayflower Through Emerson Harvard Extension School: ENGL E-182a (CRN 15383) SYLLABUS | Fall 2018 COURSE TEAM Instructor Elisa New PhD, Powell M. Cabot Professor of American Literature, Harvard University Teaching Instructor Gillian Osborne, PhD ([email protected]) Teaching Fellows Field Brown, PhD candidate, Harvard University ([email protected]) Jacob Spencer, PhD, Harvard University ([email protected]) Course Manager Caitlin Ballotta Rajagopalan, Manager of Online Education, Poetry in America ([email protected]) ABOUT THIS COURSE This course, an installment of the multi-part Poetry in America series , covers American poetry in cultural context through the year 1850. The course begins with Puritan poets—some orthodox, some rebel spirits—who wrote and lived in early New England. Focusing on Anne Bradstreet, Edward Taylor, and Michael Wigglesworth, among others, we explore the interplay between mortal and immortal, Europe and wilderness, solitude and sociality in English North America. The second part of the course spans the poetry of America's early years, directly before and after the creation of the Republic. We examine the creation of a national identity through the lens of an emerging national literature, focusing on such poets as Phillis Wheatley, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Edgar Allen Poe, and Ralph Waldo Emerson, among others. Distinguished guest discussants in this part of the course include writer Michael Pollan, economist Larry Summers, Vice President Al Gore, Mayor Tom Menino, and others. Many of the course segments have been filmed in historic places—at Cape Cod; on the Freedom Trail in Boston; in marshes, meadows, churches, and parlors, and at sites of Revolutionary War battle.
