To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He wasintimate with many of the leading abolitionists; but no one hasdescribed more vividly their grave intellectual and social defects. Helaid down principles which, when applied, would inevitably lead toprogress and reform; but he took little part in the imperfectstep-by-step process of actual reforming. He probably would have been anineffective worker in any field of reform; and, at any rate, strenuouslabor on applications of his philosophy would have prevented him frommaintaining the flow o...f his philosophic and prophetic visions. The workof giving practical effect to his thought was left for other men todo, --indeed for generations of other serviceable men, who, filled withhis ideals, will slowly work them out into institutions, customs, andother practical values.
When we think of Emerson as a prophet, we at once become interested inthe dates at which he uttered certain doctrines, or wrote certainpregnant sentences; but just here the inquirer meets a seriousdifficulty. He can sometimes ascertain that a given doctrine or sentencewas published at a given date; but he may be quite unable to ascertainhow much earlier the doctrine was really formulated, or the sentencewritten.
