It is hard to find a thinker more relevant to our times than Henry Thoreau. The themes to which he devoted his work - social justice and "conscious consumption," rejection of the cult of material prosperity and love of nature, inner self-sufficiency, intellectual improvement, and, of course, the struggle against racism, which reigned unchallenged in the United States in his time - have become programmatic for the entire civilized world in the twenty-first century. This collection includes artistic, journalistic and philosophical works that demonstrate different aspects of Thoreau's intellectual, spiritual and social position - the classic abolitionist essay "On Civil Disobedience", the writer's "main book" "Walden, or Life in the Woods," which continues to influence many people of nonconformist convictions, as well as the charming little story "Ktaadn," about the author's ascent of the mountain of the same name in New England, and the article "Slavery in Massachusetts."
