| Description: |
In 1845 Henry David Thoreau left the town for the lake of Walden, where he built himself a cabin and returned to nature, surviving on eight dollars a year. From this experience emerged a classic of American literature, a reaction against the materialism that he saw in mid-19th century America. |
| Synopsis: |
In 1845 Henry David Thoreau, one of the principal New England Transcendentalists, left the town for the country. Beside the lake of Walden, he built himself a log cabin and returned to nature, to observe and reflect - while surviving on eight dollars a year. From this experience emerged one of the great classics of American literature, a deeply personal reaction against the commercialism and materialism that he saw as the main impulses of mid-19th century America. |
