Emerson and Other Minds
Michael Colacurcio made his considerable reputation in 1984 with The Province of Piety, his rich source study of Hawthorne's short stories. This big, bustling book introduced something unusual in academic literary studies: a relentlessly scholarly writer who nevertheless allowed his personality to come forth as an intellectual style. Famous still for its ferreting-out of Hawthorne's historical allusions, the book seemed imitable only in method; i…
Emerson's Telescope
Ralph Waldo Emerson described the poet Jones Very as a “telescope,” the kind of intensely focused idealist who challenges the commitments of those he encounters. Very can be compared to Herman Melville's Bartleby as a test case that reveals the limits of nineteenth-century individualism and late romanticism

Introduction
This essay, which is the editor's introduction to part 1 of a multipart symposium on quietism, also constitutes his call for symposium papers. The symposium is meant be comprehensive. It is described as political and broadly cultural as well as religious, and in religious terms is said to cover not only the Catholic and Protestant quietisms (most properly so called) of the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, but also the proto-quietisms of…
Not Like Any Form of Activity
In his meditation on Emerson's self-reliance, George Kateb argues that Emerson's entrance into antislavery politics, particularly his calls for collective mobilization, constitutes a "deviation from his theory of self-reliance, not its transformation." Though Emerson often imagines a self-reliance that can lead to action, his descriptions of the fundamental attitude of the self towards the world suggest passivity, attention, and waiting. Because …

Strike through the Mask
This volume argues that Melville as a writer was plagued by writing anxiety, emotional problems, and painful physical ailments. His fiction was produced only with great anguish, and in the process appears to have inflicted anguish on those around him. The text examines the impact on his writing of his struggles with writer's block and depression, as well as his complex relationship with women, particularly his wife and sisters, on whom he depende…
