About this product

Product Information

One Great Author. One Great CD. 'What are you doing w?' he asked. 'Do you keep a journal?' So I make my first entry today. With these words, in response to prodding from Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau embarked on a writing enterprise--his Journal--that occupied him continuously over the entire period of his literary career, from 1837 to 1862. In one sense Thoreau's Journal is his greatest achievement as a writer, the remarkable record of a remarkable man's view of the world. Ranging in topic from entries titled Young Women at Parties to Sunlight after Storm, the Journal is neither diary r autobiography in the usual meaning of these terms, because the daily chronicle and the narrative of outward events are mir aspects of this volumius work. The Journal is clearly t the work of a diarist, but the tebook of a writer dedicated to the continuous practice of composition.
