Born in 1817, in Concord, Massachusetts, Henry grew up in mild poverty and initially went to public schools. Through great sacrifice, his family put aside what they could and enrolled him in the prestigious Concord Academy. At only 16 years old, he took the Harvard College exams and just barely passed. * This page is included from the recent book * The American Dreams Collection Special Book Offer Thoreau spent many long hours in the library learning Theology, studying four languages and writing over 5,000 pages of notes. At 20, Henry started keeping his Journal, which grew to 30 volumes throughout his lifetime. Thoreau spent two years, two months and two days there roaming the countryside and enjoying the beauty of Walden Pond while he continued to write within the boundaries and beauty of simplified living. In 1849, two years after he left Walden Pond, Thoreau published his historic essay “Resistance to Civil Government" which was posthumously called "Civil Disobedience” which emphasized personal ethics and responsibility.

The actual property was owned by Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great American philosopher. Emerson had earlier published the treatise entitled "Nature," and the young Thoreau was profoundly affected by its call for individuality and self-reliance. Thoreau planted a small garden, took pen and paper, and began to scribe the record of life at Walden.) Thoreau's experiment in deliberate living began in March of 1845. By planting a two-and-a-half acre parcel borrowed from a neighbor who thought it useless, he harvested and sold enough peas, potatoes, corn, beans and turnips to build and to buy food. He purchased an old shanty from an Irish railroad worker and tore it down. He also cut timber from the woods surrounding Walden Pond. From the razed material, he was able to construct his cabin. He used the boards for siding and even salvaged the nails from the original shack. By mid-summer, the house was ready to inhabit. Thoreau built a fireplace and chimney for heat and cooking. He plastered the inside walls and made sure he could comfortably survive the freezing New England winters, Doing all the work himself and using only native material, the house cost only about twenty-eight dollars to build, less than Thoreau had to pay for a year's lodging at Harvard.

Some say that he was a Guinea Negro. There are a few who remember his little patch among the walnuts, which he let grow up till he should be old and need them; but a younger and whiter speculator got them at last. He too, however, occupies an equally narrow house at present.

93. THOREAU, HENRY DAVID (H. TI.). Thoreau, Henry David (1817—1862), American recluse, naturalistand writer, was born at Concord, Massachusetts, on the 12th of July 1817. http://45.1911encyclopedia.org/T/TH/THOREAU_HENRY_DAVID.htm

document.write(""); THOREAU, HENRY DAVID been as fully recognized as his political genus has been. As an orator and writer his style was clear and forcible. His very dogmatism brought him many enemies, but at times, especially when he went in advance of his time, he was a much misunderstood man. These misunderstandings, frequently wilful, extended often beyond the domain of pure politics. Thus, by his enemies, Thorbecke was often held up to scorn as a pure materialist and no friend of the fine arts, because at a sitting of the states-general in 1862 he had said that it is not the duty of the state, nor in the true interest of art itself, for the government to “ protect “ art, since all state-aided art must be artificial, like any forced plant. This was popularly condensed into the aphor.. ism, yet current in Holland, that “ Art is not the business of the government,” and Thorbecke was condemned as the author of it. Again, his adversaries used to call him a dangerous demagogue. As a matter of fact, there was no more ardent royalist than Thorbecke. He believed in constitutional monarchy, as offering the best guarantees both for sovereign and people, and he was bitterly opposed to all forms of state socialism. Long before his death he realized that he had outlived his own principles, and many of his former admirers had commenced to dub him a “rank conservative,” whose political aims and reforms were no longer adequate. But Thorbecke’s life-work will endure, and the Dutch constitution of 1887 practically embodied his principles, as laid down in. the ccnstitution of 1848. The former is the outcome of the latter and could not have been made without it.

94. Henry David Thoreau Henry David Thoreau (1817 1862). A Winter Walk. Autograph manuscript,with emendations and deletions in the hand of Ralph Waldo http://www.lib.udel.edu/ud/spec/exhibits/treasures/american/thoreau.html

HENRY DAVID THOREAU (1817 -1862) "A Winter Walk." Autograph manuscript, with emendations and deletions in the hand of Ralph Waldo Emerson [New York, 1843], 18 pages. This magnificent manuscript was written in New York in 1843, while Thoreau was staying with Emerson's brother, submitted to Emerson and published later that year in The Dial . The essay was revised by Thoreau during composition and edited for publication by Emerson, who made a few substantive changes and numerous deletions. The manuscript, which varies significantly from the published text, was apparently used as printer's copy for The Dial , and all the revisions and deletions were observed. Thoreau's manuscript originally consisted of 43 pages, of which the first 16 pages and pages 19-20 do not survive. Present here are pages 17-18, 21-24 and 29-40. The Pierpont Morgan Library and the Houghton Library each have one of the missing leaves, and two addi- tional leaves survive in private collections. "A Winter Walk," which has been called Thoreau's "first fully mature piece of writ- ing," contains some of his earliest serious writing on nature, with allusions to both Walden Pond and the Concord River. It was first published in book form in Excursions in 1863.

FRtR Outlines American Literature Democratic Origins and Revolutionary Writers, 1776-1820: Writers of fiction: Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) An Outline of American Literature by Kathryn VanSpanckeren Democratic Origins and Revolutionary Writers, 1776-1820: Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) Index Henry David Thoreau, of French and Scottish descent, was born in Concord and made it his permanent home. From a poor family, like Emerson , he worked his way through Harvard. Throughout his life, he reduced his needs to the simplest level and managed to live on very little money, thus maintaining his independence. In essence, he made living his career. A nonconformist, he attempted to live his life at all times according to his rigorous principles. This attempt was the subject of many of his writings. Thoreau's masterpiece, Walden , or Life in the Woods (1854), is the result of two years, two months, and two days (from 1845 to 1847) he spent living in a cabin he built at Walden Pond on property owned by Emerson. In Walden , Thoreau consciously shapes this time into one year, and the book is carefully constructed so the seasons are subtly evoked in order. The book also is organized so that the simplest earthly concerns come first (in the section called "Economy," he describes the expenses of building a cabin); by the ending, the book has progressed to meditations on the stars.
