Ralph Waldo Emerson is one of the most significant figures in
nineteenth-century American literature and culture-indeed, this
collection argues, in the history of philosophy. The Other Emerson
is a thorough reassessment of the philosophical underpinnings,
theoretical innovations, and ethical and political implications of
the prose writings of one of America's most enduring thinkers.
Considering Emerson first and foremost as a daring and original
thinker, The Other Emerson focuses on three Emersonian
subjects-subjectivity, the political, and the nature of
philosophy-and range in topic from Emerson's relationships to
slavery and mourning to his place in the development of Romanticism
as reread by contemporary systems theory. It is Emerson's
appreciation of truth's instability that link him to the European
philosophical tradition. Contributors: Eduardo Cadava, Princeton U;
Sharon Cameron, Johns Hopkins U; Russell B. Goodman, U of New
Mexico; Paul Grimstad, Yale U; Eric Keenaghan, U at Albany, SUNY;
Gregg Lambert, Syracuse U; Sandra Laugier, Universite de Picardie
Jules Verne; Donald Pease, Dartmouth College.
