8、lses time, but he did further development. I always think that a man, who wants to move forward, must have the courage not to follow someone elses thinking, but having ones own opinion. Each persons life is dominated by their own, no matter happy or sad. These are all dominated by force and belief.
9、How to make themselves have the power to overcome the difficulties of the way forward, the key is not afraid to lose. However, this power does not come out of thin air, but keep on learning and thinking. The last but not the least is the innovation. Learning is a long process; we can also say it is
10、endless. In this process, we need to think about and dream of some time. Sometimes I simply think that maybe innovation is from love. If there is no love, we will not be as keen to put some things to be perfect, the writer was due to the love of this writing, wrote the immortal works. The same is tr
11、ue of our work, it requires us to dig, discover new things and form the new ideas. Innovation is to bring our work out to compare with others. Competing with others, we find problems. In the process of research questions to find answers, to find a breakthrough to resolve the things that others canno

The core of his thinking is “self-reliance” or “independence”that is cultural national independence for the United States, literarily individual independence for writers and religious independence from the church. As far as literatur
13、e is concerned, in a broad sense, Emerson places his emphasis on nationalism rather than colonialism, advocating the American literature: typical American content and American style.

14、ss in everybody that needs only to be set free, so every American writer should trust himself, respect himself and write according to his own principles and in his own peculiar way. Emersons works deeply influence readers, especially Self-Reliance, which is from Essays. This prose is written accordi
15、ng to a series of speech materials between 1836 and 1837. Self-Reliance is his important work which expresses his idea of transcendentalism. “Believe Yourself” is the centre point of Self-Reliance. Emerson opposes various forms of imitation in the works. He thinks the man should firmly believe that
16、he is excellent at any time. If a man is afraid of public thought, he will possibly lose the innovative ability which is bad for his success. If a person doesnt want to let him or the society down, he must obey the principles in his inner heart, while the people who comply with the tradition, author
17、ity or current system means break this principle. The opinions which Emerson expresses in his prose are completely different. At that time, they agree with the American peoples optimistic spirit. Above all, he believes in self-reliance. He reconstructs the common literature images in writing skill a
18、nd endows the works with new opinions. Ralph Waldo Emerson affects the ideas of classics works and he forms his own philosophy. Actually his philosophy, his religious and cultural thoughts are deeply influenced by European Romanticism and Kants thought. The core of his thinking is “self-reliance” or
19、 “independence”that is cultural national independence for the United States, literarily individual independence for writers and religious independence from the church. As far as literature is concerned, in a broad sense, Emerson places his emphasis on nationalism rather than colonialism, advocating
20、the American literature: typical American content and American style. In a narrow sense, Emerson has laid his stress on the individual instead of the group.
