Self-Reliance and Other Essays by Ralph Waldo Emerson | Full Audiobook

The complete First Series of essays by Ralph Waldo Emerson, the father of American Transcendentalism, read aloud in full. Written in 1841, these twelve essays are the cornerstone of American philosophy and self-reliance. In Self-Reliance, Emerson urges you to trust yourself, to think for yourself, and to refuse the comfort of conformity, for whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist. In Compensation he reveals the hidden law of balance that runs through all of life; in Friendship and in Love he examines the deepest of human bonds; and in The Over-Soul he points to the one mind common to all individual men. Together with History, Spiritual Laws, Prudence, Heroism, Circles, Intellect, and Art, these essays form a timeless map of the self-reliant life and the inner world of the soul. Complete unabridged audiobook, read aloud with calm narration for deep listening, study, reflection, or sleep.
