I have attached a document with the selected portions of Henry David Thereaus “Walden” that needs to be read, and the questions that need to be answered. This can be a short 2 or 3 paragraphs, but must contain quotes from the selected readings for support. The quotes should be in bold and italics with the page number.
“Civil Disobedience” p. 1596-1612 and Walden excerpts – “Economy,” p. 1612-19 AND p. 1634 (start with last paragraph) – 1646 (end of 1st paragraph); “Where I Lived and What I Lived For,” p. 1657-67, and “Conclusion” p. 1785-93.
n what ways are the daily as well as seasonal cycles of nature used to shape the form of Walden? How does this structure relate to Thoreau’s major theme? In what sense does Thoreau – much like Benjamin Franklin – attempt to create a manual for how one should live life? Are his recommendations for authentic living realistic?
