Thoreau's political writing is intensely personal and direct. Both
his life and work focus uncompromisingly on the question 'how
should I live?', and for Thoreau, no element of day-to-day
existence is left untouched by moral and political issues. This
1996 edition of Thoreau's political essays includes 'Civil
Disobedience', selections from Walden, 'Life Without Principle',
and the anti-slavery addresses, such as 'Slavery in Massachusetts'.
In her introduction, Nancy L. Rosenblum places the essays in the
context of Thoreau's life of self-examination, and the debates
about the abolition of slavery, and she analyses the themes of
citizenship and resistance that have made Thoreau an enduring
influence in political philosophy and practice.
