WHAT DO YOU THINK OF EMERSON
. The prompt is: What do you think of Emerson? be VERY specific here. Don’t just say he’s confusing–tell why, and the implications of that. Many people have said that Emerson is confusing on purpose, and that is a kind of unkindness to his readers (do not disagree). So talk about that kind of stuff. You can write whatever you want in any kind of way you want; but again, be VERY specific. The more specific the better. Use quotes, then talk about this quotes. Use Thoreau to help you explain Emerson, etc. Your essays should be at least two pages double spaced (Times New Roman, 12 pt. font, 1″ margins all around).
