About this book
Seven essays by John Jay Chapman begin with the longest, on Ralph Waldo Emerson, which opens by quoting Emerson on the masses from The Conduct of Life. Chapman reads Emerson as a protest against the tyranny of democracy and a defender of the individual.
The others deal with Walt Whitman, Romeo, the sonnets of Michael Angelo, the fourth canto of Dante's Inferno, Robert Browning and Robert Louis Stevenson.
