Walden and Civil Disobedience

Central to the philosophy of Transcendentalism, the narrative explores Thoreau's two-year experiment in simplicity and self-reliance at Walden Pond. Through detailed observations of nature and daily life, he articulates his quest for a more authentic existence, reflecting on the impact of society's institutions. Alongside this classic account, the volume features "Civil Disobedience," where Thoreau asserts the moral obligation to oppose governmental injustice. Together, these works embody his enduring legacy as a champion of individualism and natural living.
