A. Bronson Alcott: His Life and Philosophy V2 is a biographical work by Frank B. Sanborn that explores the life and ideas of Amos Bronson Alcott, a 19th-century American philosopher, teacher, and writer. The book is the second volume of Sanborn's two-part biography of Alcott and covers the period from 1860 until Alcott's death in 1888. The book delves into Alcott's personal life, including his family relationships, friendships, and personal struggles, as well as his professional achievements and contributions to philosophy and education. Sanborn examines Alcott's ideas on transcendentalism, social reform, and education, and provides insights into his relationships with other notable figures of the time, such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. Through extensive research and analysis of Alcott's writings and personal papers, Sanborn provides readers with a detailed and comprehensive understanding of Alcott's life and philosophy. The book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of American philosophy, education, and social reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
