Today we discussed Emerson's "Self-Reliance." Grammar (Subject-Verb) is due tomorrow. Walden by Thoreau must be read and notes completed by Thursday (lit. book, pages 233-244). Notes on the following questions:
What does Thoreau say about Nature?
What is he trying to teach his readers?
What is he critiquing?
What transcendentalist principles (as we've learned about through reading Emerson) are evident in Thoreau's writings?
Write down important quotes you find and let me know why you think they're important.
