Emerson as revealed in his rong>journalsrong> is more spontaneous, more complex, more human and appealing than he appears in rong>therong> published works. This man is rong>therong> seeker rarong>therong>r than rong>therong> sage; he records rong>therong> turmoil, struggle, and questioning that preceded rong>therong> serene and confident affirmations rong>ofrong> rong>therong> essays. He is honest, earthy, tough-minded, self-critical ("I am a lover rong>ofrong> indolence, & rong>ofrong> rong>therong> belly"), warm in his enthusiasms, a witty and sharp observer rong>ofrong> people and events. Everything is grist for his mill: personal experiences, his omnivorous reading, ruminations on matters large and small, his doubts and perplexities, public issues and local gossip. rong>Therong>re are abrupt shifts in subject and tone, reflecting rong>therong> variousness rong>ofrong> his moods and rong>therong> restless energy rong>ofrong> his mind. Drawing from Harvard's sixteen-volume scholarly edition rong>ofrong> rong>therong> rong>journalsrong>--but omitting rong>therong> textual apparatus that makes it hard to read--Joel Porte presents a symparong>therong>tic selection that brings us close to Emerson rong>therong> man.
