Charles Fourier Was Born in Besançon, France.2
1 FRANÇOIS-MARIE-CHARLES “1,680 PERSONS” FOURIER WALDEN: In short, I am convinced, both by faith and experience that to maintain one’s self on this earth is not a hardship but a pastime, if we will live simply and wisely; as the pursuits of the simpler nations are still the sports of the more artificial. It is not necessary that a man should earn his living by the sweat of his brow, unless he sweats easier than I do. 1772 April 7: François-Marie-Charles Fourier was born in Besançon, France.2 1.This sentiment which went into Walden first occurs in a letter Henry Thoreau wrote to a person intrigued by Fourierism, Horace Greeley, on May 19, 1848: “The fact is man need not live by the sweat of his brow unless he sweats easier than I do he needs so little.” 2. “Besançon” is not French for “Tickle your ass with a feather.” For the magnificent celebration of this magnificent day on April 7, 1845 at Brook Farm, see: HDT WHAT? INDEX CHARLES FOURIER AND “FOURIERISM” 1808 Charles Fourier’s first major work was released, THÉORIE DES QUATRE MOUVEMENTS ET DES DESTINÉES GÉNÉRALES (THE SOCIAL DESTINY OF MAN; OR, THEORY OF THE FOUR MOVEMENTS, to be published in English as of 1857).3 3. There is one master myth which drives all our ideology. It is that there is, and that it is necessary for us to discover, the one right way, The Solution, and that if we then hew to this one right way, everything will start to work, and the world will be all set to turn out all right: It seems, however, that although we are prepared to defend to the death our right to trust in this master myth which drives all our ideology –that there is a right way and all that is necessary is for us to discover and hew to it– this really is not so. -

Delano: The Harbinger Reviews Its Transcendental "Friends": Margaret Full The Harbinger Reviews Its Transcendental "Friends"; Margaret Fuller, Theodore Parker, and Ralph Waldo Emerson by STERLING F. DELANO HEN IN late 1840 Ralph Waldo Emerson refused George Ripley's W request to become a member of Ripley's then nascent Brook Farm community, he made perfectly clear to his fellow transcendentalists what modern students of the movement-and, one feels certain, the transcendentalists themselves-have always known: there never was much unanimity of agreement among the "infidels" who had fallen away in the 1830's from the Unitarian church. This point, of course, had earlier been made-albeit unwittingly-by the outspoken Orestes Brownson, the tough-minded socialist who eventually founded and edit ed-among other journals-the Boston Quarterly Review (1838-42). On September 9, 1836, Emerson had published Nature, that essay which drew together and organized for the first time the separate ideas that were then being articulated by such individuals as Ripley and Brownson themselves, as well as by Sampson Reed, Frederic Henry Hedge, and others. -

Horace Greeley and the Rise of the Republican Party
20 Horace Greeley and the Rise of the Republican Party Harrison Diskin Faculty Advisor: Dr. Katherine Mooney Department of History Abstract: Throughout the period between the Wilmot Proviso of 1846 and the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, progressive politicians within the Whig Party became increasingly aware of these growing tensions, as northern and southern interests vied for control. Progressive Whigs simply could not remain within their party and retain any prospect of enacting political reform, leading to the development of a new party—indeed the first sectional party to arise in American history—the Republican Party. At the front of this movement for a new political venue were Horace Greeley and his New York Tribune. Greeley’s paper provided a mouthpiece for northern interests, and reflected this nineteenth-century trend of progressives finding themselves in need of a new and better-unified political faction. By studying the factors in Horace Greeley’s life that led him away form the Whigs and in search of this new faction, we provide ourselves a greater understanding of the socio-political forces that caused this larger trend within nineteenth-century American politics and led to the ultimate formation of the Republican Party. n the evening of June 28, 1855, Horace Greeley sat at his desk choosing his words with the utmost care. He was weary from long Ohours spent at the office of hisNew York Tribune, and frustrated with the complacency and indecision exhibited by his remaining compatriots in the Whig Party. He was writing an editorial to be printed the next morning: “By persisting in calling ourselves Whigs…we do but divide our forces of Freedom at the moment of [its] utmost need, and expose her sacred cause to the calamity of utter and enduring defeat.”1 Like a fiery inferno, the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 had reduced America’s political landscape to a wasteland, with the remnants of parties, formerly strong and unified in purpose, scattered among the ash. -
