Emerson's: The American Scholar: Part 2

Published: Feb. 9, 2011, 2:09 a.m.

In this show, we continue discussing Ralph Waldo Emerson's 1837 essay "The American Scholar." Last week, members of Ethics Talk decided to all read "The American Scholar" and we began to discuss the lessons we learned from this essay. One hour was not long enough, so we continue the discussion today. Although this show is a continuation of last week's show, it will be "self-sustaining" and comprehensible on its own.
