In this remarkable work, Roger Lundin seeks the source of American
moral and cultural authority in the shift from nature to experience
figured in the thought of Ralph Waldo Emerson. While the pragmatic
tradition concludes that experience must generate the very light
that will lead us out of its own darkness, From Nature to
Experience returns to religion for illumination and truth. This is
a story of nineteenth-century sources and twenty-first century
consequences in which literature, history, philosophy, and theology
are joined in order to form a truly original critique of American
culture.
