They were ministers, most of them, ostensibly concerned more with man's prospects of salvation than with the contemplation of Beauty. Nevertheless, any serious study of New England transcendentalism must take into account the fact that it involved two distinct subspecies of transcendentalists: the transcendental ministers, who were not primarily estheticians, and the transcendental poets, who were. A serious study of New England transcendentalism must deal, furthermore, with the intimate ties by which these two subgroups were related, almost as one, despite their major differences. 171 leaves--including plate, mount. photograph eng http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/ Transcendentalism (New England) Thesis--English Emerson, Greenough, and the transcendental esthetic Thesis Manuscript available on the University of Washington Campuses and via UW NetID.
