He would live the majority of his life in that same town and die there in 1862. His father, a pencil manufacturer named John Thoreau, and mother Cynthia Dunbar Thoreau christened him David Henry but always called him Henry. As an adult, Thoreau began to give his name as Henry David but never had it legally changed. The Thoreaus had three other children in addition to Henry - Helen, five years older than Henry, John, Jr., two years older, and Sophia, two years younger. In 1821, the family moved to Boston, where they lived until 1823, when they returned to Concord. Thoreau later recalled a visit the family made to Walden Pond from Boston when he was four years old. When he was sixteen, Thoreau entered Harvard College, his grandfather's alma mater. His schooling was paid for by the money his father made as a pencil manufacturer, combined with contributions from his elder siblings salaries from their teaching jobs. While at college, Thoreau studied Latin and Greek grammar and composition, and took classes in a wide variety of subjects, including mathematics, English, history, philosophy, and four different modern languages. He also made great use of the Harvard library holdings before graduating in 1837.

He graduated from Harvard University. From 1841-1843, Thoreau lived in the house of Ralph Waldo Emerson and was introduced to the philosophy known as transcendentalism. In 1845, Thoreau moved to a hut on Walden Pond, just outside of Concord. There, he spent most of his time observing nature and medititating. He supported himself with odd jobs around the area, such as gardening and carpentry. Emerson joined him there from 1847-1848. Only two of Thoreau's works were published during his lifetime, A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers (1849) and Walden ;or, Life in the Woods Walden , his most important work, chronicles Thoreau's meditations on non-materialism and reverence for nature. In "Civil Disobedience"(1849), Thoreau explained why he chose to go to jail instead of paying a poll tax which supported the Mexican War. This method of protest was later taken up by such peaceful revolutionaries as Mahandas Gandhi and by Martin Luther King, Jr. Other collections of Thoreau's writing were only published after his death. They include

He was a graduate of Harvard college and then became a teacher in the local school he lasted about two weeks after disagreeing with local officials. He then spent some time as a tutor and handyman, and then started to write. He found himself scandalized by the nation's acceptance of slavery and the Mexican/American war. O n July 4th, 1845 he moved his meager belongings to a cabin he had built in the woods near Walden Pond. There he was to declare his independence from the government for the next two years. He is " an example of the practicability of virtue, the deep-rooted individual who has the power to awaken his neighbors from their torpid lives of expediency to lives of principle." I n the middle of his life at Walden Pond he was arrested for not paying the local poll tax. He refused to pay as a way of demonstrating he did not recognize a government, " which buys and sells, men, women, and children, like cattle..

Henry David Thoreau Civil Disobedience But, to speak practically and as a citizen, unlike those who call themselves no-government men, I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government. Let every man make known what kind of government would command his respect, and that will be one step toward obtaining it. "Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note, As his corse to the rampart we hurried; Not a soldier discharged his farewell shot O'er the grave where our hero was buried." "I am too high born to be propertied, To be a second at control, Or useful serving-man and instrument To any sovereign state throughout the world." He who gives himself entirely to his fellow men appears to them useless and selfish; but he who gives himself partially to them is pronounced a benefactor and philanthropist. How does it become a man to behave toward the American government today? I answer, that he cannot without disgrace be associated with it. I cannot for an instant recognize that political organization as my government which is the slave's government also.

Miskjente diktere fra fortiden kan med ett slag begynne å lokke til seg nye skarer av lesere fordi verden er blitt annerledes. Dette har skjedd med den amerikanske forfatteren Henry David Thoreau (1817- 62). I samtidens øyne var han en slags skrulling som skrev rare bøker som ingen leste, og som streifet rundt i skog og mark uten å foreta seg noe nyttig. Han levde et stille liv, opptatt av naturstudier og litterære sysler. Men i våre dager er disse bøkene blitt aktuelle igjen og leses som aldri før, både i Amerika og Europa. Hans hovedverk Walden lest og elsket som bare få andre bøker fra klassisk amerikansk litteratur. Henry David Thoreau ble født i den lille byen Concorde i Massachusetts, og tilbrakte hele livet her. Han kom fra et velstående hjem og hadde fått tidens høyeste universitetsutdannelse, men det interesserte ham lite å slå seg til ro i en fast og trygg stilling. Det han ville var å leve fritt og ubundet og ha tid til å dyrke sine interesser: friluftsliv, filosofi og klassisk litteratur. Spørsmålet om hvordan han skulle skaffe seg et ærlig levebrød samtidig med at han fikk beholde en del av den dyrebare friheten, skulle komme til å plage ham bestandig.
