About Ralph Waldo Emerson
Ralph Waldo Emerson helped spark the transcendentalist movement with the essay Nature,
which described his belief in the spiritual essence of humanity and the
natural world. He was born in Boston in 1803. He was a Unitarian
minister until he resigned in 1832 to become a philosopher and writer.
He suffered the untimely deaths of many of his loved ones: three
brothers, his first wife at age 20, and his eldest son at age five.
Emerson died in 1882.
