Description
Expanding on Seybold's pioneering 1951 analysis of Thoreau's classicism, this book argues that Thoreau was a Platonist. Viewing Thoreau as a Platonist deepens our understanding of, and removes alleged contradictions in, his theism, his vegetarianism, and the function of language in his thought.
