NONLINEAR NATURE
Christopher J. Windolph
In this provocative study, Christopher
Windolph analyzes Emersonian naturalism
from the standpoint of nonlinearity, offering
new ways of reading and thinking about
Emerson s stance toward naturalism and the
influence of science on his thought. Drawing
on ideas in perspective theory, architecture,
and nonlinear dynamics to argue that Emer¬
son s natural philosophy follows from his
analysis of the development of organic forms,
Windolph breaks new ground in Emerson
studies by exploring how considerations of
shape and the act of seeing underpin all of
Emerson s theories about nature.
Bringing to his study a focused attention to
the history of Western science and philosophy,
Windolph
ing of how the act of seeing occurs and of the
eye s ability to see through appearances to
organizing principles, showing how Emerson s
naturalism extends beyond the narrow con¬
fines of traditional linear science. Through
extensive readings of Emerson s journals,
essays, and lectures, Windolph shows that
Emerson was an empirical idealist who inte¬
grated a scientific approach to nature with an
exploration of nonlinear principles, revealing
him to be more prescient in his writings about
certain recent developments in scientific
thought than has been realized.
This work makes a major contribution to
the ongoing study of Emerson and science,
expanding Emerson s role as a major Amer¬
ican philosopher while rebutting those who
see him primarily as a rhetorician or poetic
propagandist. Emerson s Nonlinear Nature
opens new ways of thinking about Emerson s
work in its nineteenth-century contexts,
reassesses his reception in twentieth-century
criticism, and makes a strong case for his
continuing relevance in the century ahead.
