Book synopsis

Excerpt from Select Essays of Ralph Waldo Emerson: Edited, With Introduction and Notes Moreover, for a preacher of self-reliance and detach ment from the past, Emerson is amazingly fond Of peppering his pages with quotations, allusions, and references to ancient authorities. This opens the door to a terrible number of explanatory notes, - more, I think, than could properly be made on any other author included in the list of college entrance requirements in English. I have purposely failed to use all these opportunities for making notes. But if any teacher finds that I have still made too many, it will be easy to skip the superżuous ones, and direct the scholar's attention to the substance and main plan Of the Essays.
