Abstract
A wealth of scholarship attests to a rich year for Transcendentalist studies in 2015. Consideration of global and transnational contexts is particularly fruitful in Ricardo Miguel-Alfonso and David LaRocca’s edited collection, A Power to Translate the World: New Essays on Emerson and International Culture. The trend in contextualizing Thoreau and others in science studies has a remarkable boost in Richard B. Primack’s Walden Warming: Climate Change Comes to Thoreau’s Woods. Engagement with social and political thought remains strong as well with a special issue of Nineteenth-Century Prose dedicated to Fuller and several strong essays on Theodore Parker.
丰富的学术成果证明,2015年是先验主义研究的丰饶之年。里卡多·米格尔-阿方索和大卫·拉罗卡的合集《翻译世界的力量:爱默生与国际文化新论》对全球和跨国背景的思考尤其富有成果。在理查德·b·普里马克(Richard B. Primack)的《瓦尔登湖变暖:气候变化来到梭罗的森林》(Walden Warming: Climate Change Comes to Thoreau’s Woods)一书中,将梭罗和其他人置于科学研究背景下的趋势得到了显著推动。与社会和政治思想的接触也很强烈,《19世纪散文》专刊致力于富勒和几篇关于西奥多·帕克的文章。
