The Transcendentalist Revolt Against Materialism is a book written by George F. Whicher that explores the philosophical movement of transcendentalism in 19th century America. The book examines the ways in which transcendentalists sought to challenge the dominant materialistic worldview of their time by emphasizing the importance of individualism, intuition, and spiritual experience. Through a series of in-depth analyses of the works of key transcendentalist figures such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Margaret Fuller, Whicher provides a comprehensive overview of the movement and its impact on American intellectual history. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American philosophy and the development of transcendentalist thought.From The Problems In American Civilization Series By The Department Of American Studies At Amherst College.
