Reviews"Von Frank has provided a painstaking edition with useful notation and a highly detailed chronology of the period of Emerson's life covered by the volume. David M. Robinson's general introduction is a lucid treatment of the sermons in their historical context, which is probably the best available short treatment of Emerson's ministry. Highly recommended."--Choice, "Von Frank has provided a painstaking edition with useful notation and a highly detailed chronology of the period of Emerson's life covered by the volume. David M.

SynopsisThis inaugural volume of a four-volume set marks the beginning of the publication of all 180 of the extant sermons composed and delivered by Emerson between the start of his ministerial career in 1826 and his final retirement from the pulpit in 1838. Edited from manuscripts in the Houghton Library, Harvard University, the sermons are presented in chronological order in a clear text approximating as nearly as possible the original version read by Emerson to his congregation. The historical introduction by David M. Robinson gives a significant appraisal of Emerson's life between 1826 and 1838 and of his absorption in and reaction against the religious culture of his time.
