RALPH WALDO EMERSON.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, the Gel
'ebrated American poet, essayist and
philosopher, was born in Boston it,
1903 and graduated at Harvard Colleg
in 1921. Having turned his attention
to theology he was ordained minister
of the Second Unitarian Church o.
Boston, but soon after formed peculiar
views in regard to forms of worship,
abandoned his profession and retirin .
to the quiet village of Concord, dc.
voted himself to his favorite study
the nature of man and his relation t.
the universe.
Mr.. Emerson delivered at Concord
in 1861, All oration. on the death OF
President Lincoln and in 1866 received
the degree of l.. l.. d. from Harvard
college. Much of his literary work
has been done in contributing to per-
iodicals. His last article of this char.
aoter appeared in the Century Maga-
Zine for March the subject being The
"Supeflative." Some of Emerson )
works have been translated into
French and have excited much admir-
alton among Parisian transcendent-
alists. He was PROFESSIONALLY the
most eminent modern philosopher Of
the Pantheistic school and one of the
most remarkable personiflcations Of
American genius.
