Publisher Description

This essay traces the popular and critical reception of Walden from its publication in 1854 to the present. It attempts to distinguish the popularity of Walden from the stature of Thoreau as a cultural icon, and emphasizes the rise of Walden as a canonical work of American literature during the fifty years from approximately 1930 to 1980. **********
