A POLITICAL COMPANION TO
Henry David Thoreau
Edited by Jack Turner
The writings of Henry David Thoreau
(1817—
1862)
have captivated scholars, activists,
and ecologists for more than a century. Less
attention, however, has been paid to the
author s political philosophy and its influence
on American public life. Although Thoreau s
doctrine of civil disobedience has become a
touchstone in world history, the greater part
of his political legacy is often overlooked.
A Political Companion to Henry David
Thoreau is the first comprehensive volume
focused exclusively on Thoreau s political
thought.
In sixteen incisive essays, editor Jack
Turner and other noted scholars illuminate
the unexamined aspects of Thoreau s life
and writings. Turner s introduction surveys
the scholarship that first explored Thoreau s
politics, and the book s opening essays
examine the complex relationship between
Thoreau s work and both classical and
modern elements of democratic theory. The
contributors show that Thoreau espoused
democratic ideals of equality and individual
liberty while questioning the authority of
majoritarian, representative governments.
A Political Companion to Henry David
Thoreau also places Thoreau s work within
the context of American history and politics.
Here, Thoreau emerges as an unflinching,
prophetic voice against the horrors of slavery
and the subjugation of Native Americans.
Thoreau s mistrust of the constitutional
rule of law, however, puts him in opposition
continued from front
βαρ
to Abraham Lincoln and other acclaimed
defenders of the American democratic
experiment. Thoreau s reluctance to engage
with governmental systems also influenced
twentieth-century environmentalists in ways
sometimes seen as detrimental to the goals of
conservation and responsible stewardship.
Other essays examine the metaphysical and
ethical concerns animating Thoreau s politics.
Thoreau s example shows that solitary quests
for connection to nature and the spiritual
realm, and the insights that emerge as a
result, are politically consequential because
they set the stage for critical awareness and
civil disobedience. The book concludes with
essays that compare Thoreau to Rousseau,
Adorno,
Gandhi, and other philosophers,
situating Thoreau within the canon of
classical and contemporary political theory.
Combining both new and classic essays,
this book examines the far-reaching political
significance of a great American thinker. A
Political Companion to Henry David Thoreau
is a landmark reference, exploring Thoreau s
political philosophy more thoroughly than
ever before as well as demonstrating the
continuing relevance of his ideas to the
American political landscape.
Jack Turner, assistant professor of political
science at the University of Washington, has
published articles on Tocqueville, Emerson,
Thoreau, and Ellison in such journals as
Political Theory, Raritan, and Polity.
