The social, cultural, and spiritual movement we remember as New England Transcendentalism was a complex phenomenon. Commonly associated with the individualism of Emerson, Thoreau, and the Concord circle, it had also an urban, social, and political aspect exemplified by the brilliant Margaret Fuller and Unitarian minister William Ellery Channing. Please join founding Innermost House Advisor Phyllis Cole, Past President of the Emerson Society and the Margaret Fuller Society, and Rev. John Buehrens, Past President of the Unitarian Universalist Association, as they discuss the socially engaged side of the transcendentalist movement HERE.
