Revolutionary Ideas Rephrased for Today

InÂ Everyday Emerson, author Sam TorodeÂ rephrases the works of Ralph Waldo Emerson in contemporary language.

Volume One covers Emerson's pathbreaking early lectures, featuring full paraphrases of "The American Scholar," "The Divinity School Address," "The Transcendentalist," and more. It also includes paraphrased excerpts from Emerson's speeches advocating for social reform, the abolition of slavery, and women's rights.Â Â

Sam Torode's introduction and notes provide an overview of Emerson's life and major themes, and explore the relevance of his philosophy today.Â Everyday EmersonÂ can be read on its own, or as an aid to studying the original works.
