    • 4 Pages

    Many people have theories and philosophies about life in general. There have been thousands of books by many different people in the past and present, transcendentalism falls amongst all of these ideas. Great philosophers and writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau were two of many that established the mindset that taught people that our spirits have deep connection with nature and that our ideas transcend the natural world as we see it. Both Emerson and Thoreau emphasized greatly on forming decisions without the input of others as well as being able to do what one enjoy rather than fitting in with conformity just to be accepted by society. People who practice Transcendentalism occasionally separate themselves from the world and get in touch with nature to be at peace with themselves. But traditional society was not too fond with the idea of people being transcendentalist, the ideas of nonconformity and free thought was intolerable to the fabricated social order of society. Though the general idea of transcendentalism has its strengths and could very well be practiced and a wonderful philosophy to live out, there are some weaknesses to the consequences of the actions some may do in order to do what they believe in. With a traditional conform culture, believing and practicing the acts of transcendentalism often caused trouble to the liberals who believed in individualism.…
