Instead of canonizing him as a celebrant of ""pure"" nature apart from the corruption of civilization, the essays in Thoreauvian Modernities reveal edgier facets of his work- how Thoreau is able to unsettle as well as inspire and how he is able to focus on both the timeless and the timely. Contributors from the United States and Europe explore Thoreau's modernity and give a much-needed reassessment of his work in a global context. The first of three sections, ""Thoreau and (Non)Modernity, "" views Thoreau as a social thinker who set himself again. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Thoreau, Henry David,|d1817-1862|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78095600|xCriticism and interpretation. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005576 600 14 Thoreau, Henry David,|d1817-1862. 600 17 Thoreau, Henry David,|d1817-1862.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/29125 650 0 Civilization, Modern, in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh94003779 650 0 Transcendentalism (New England)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85136886 650 7 Criticism and interpretation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1198648 650 7 Civilization, Modern, in literature.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/863110 650 7 Transcendentalism (New England)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1154551 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 700 1 Specq, François,|d1965-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n2006053154 700 1 Walls, Laura Dassow.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n87840342 700 1 Granger, Michel,|d1947-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2010071732 776 08 |iPrint version:|tThoreauvian modernities.|dAthens ; London : University of Georgia Press, ©2013|z9780820344287 |w(DLC) 2012024219|w(OCoLC)792884038 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=453377|zOnline eBook.
