Description
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
His own letters to Carlyle of the year 1845 give us a clue to the Representative Men lectures.
He speaks of their being got ready for delivery at the Lyceum, Boston.
This opened the way for the English lectures, and a course on this subject followed at the Manchester Athenaeum in the late autumn of 1847.
Speaking of the earlier Boston lectures, his son writes The Lyceum was Emer son's Open pulpit.
His main occupation through life was reading lectures to who would hear, at first in courses in Boston, but later all Over the country.
The Lyceum became a recognised institution in the towns of New Eng land during these years, and Emerson was its accepted chief speaker and homilist.
