While reading "Self-Reliance," we've looked at some themes explored by Emerson:
1)Were does knowledge come from? Who produces knowledge?
2)What is non-conformity?
3)What is sacred?
4)What is truth?
5)What is virtue?
6) How does self-reliance transform the functions or characterizations of society's institutions?
We've also contrasted some of his ideals with today's schooling system. Choose one of these topics to expand on. What conclusions can we draw in terms of Emerson's ideals within a certain theme? If schools today were to adopt these ideals, what would our schooling system look like?
This should be written in MLA essay format and should be at least 2 pages long.
