ecent book-length studies of Thoreau have focused either
on his place in the history of the natural sciences or have
applied political principles to his works. None, however,
has fully addressed what ecocritic Rebecca Solnit calls “the Thoreau
problem” the compartmentalizing of Thoreau s mind into either that
of a hermit of nature or that of a champion of social reform. This
book proposes an interdisciplinary solution to this problem through
the connection between Thoreau s ecological study of nature and
his intense interest in the emerging social sciences; especially the
history of civilization and ethnology.
The book first establishes Thoreau s “human ecology,” the relation
between the natural sciences and the social sciences in his thinking,
exploring how his reading in contemporary books about the history
of humanity and racial science shaped his thinking and connecting
these emerging anthropological texts to his late nature writings. It
then discusses these connections in his major works, including Walden
and his “reform papers” such as “Civil Disobedience,” the travel
narrative A Week on the Concord and Merrimack The Maine
Woods, and Cape Cod. The concluding chapter focuses on Thoreau’s
attitude toward Manifest Destiny, arguing, against conventional views,
that considering both his life and his writing, especially the essay
“Walking,” we must conclude that he both accepted and endorsed
Manifest Destiny as an inevitable result of cultural succession.
