Ralph Waldo Emerson Transfigured. Abstract This afterward considers two assessments of Emerson’s career and its meaning offered at the 1903 centenary of Emerson’s birth: the first in a lecture given by William James, and the second an address by John Dewey. Pointing out that both of these public statements, which insisted upon Emerson’s abiding relevance to the justice struggles of the early twentieth century, “both ring true and ring hollow” in light of Emerson’s own limitations as proponent for reform and the potential to outfit Emerson’s works as forms of “weaponry” for social or economic change.

The Conduct of Life is a collection of essays by Ralph Waldo Emerson published in 1860 and revised in 1876. In this volume, Emerson sets out to answer "the question of the times:" "How shall I live?" It is composed of nine essays, each preceded by a poem. These nine essays are largely based on lectures Emerson held throughout the country, including for a young, mercantile audience in the lyceums of the Midwestern boomtowns of the 1850s.

It was one of Emerson's most successful publications and has been identified as a source of influence for a number of writers, including Friedrich Nietzsche.
