    Originality, Communality, and the Late Style

    by Christopher Hanlon ...
    Ralph Waldo Emerson's dementia, an ordeal that marked his final two decades, has never been a secret among those who study Emerson's life.

    Edited by Alan M. Levine, Daniel S. Malachuk ...
    Series series Political Companions to Great American Authors
    From before the Civil War until his death in 1882, Ralph Waldo Emerson was renowned—and renounced—as one of the United States' most prominent abolitionists and as a leading visionary of the nation's liberal democratic future.
