SHOULD BE HENRY THOREAU'S WRITINGS INCLUDE IN OUR LESSON PLANNING?
AMERICAN AUTHOR, POET, NATURALIST, TAX RESISTER, DEVELOPMENT, CRITIC,
SURVEYOR, HISTORIAN, PHILOSOPHER AND LEADING TRANSCENDENT WHO LIVED IN
NEW ENGLAND, CONCORD, MASSACHUSETTS AROUND MID-NINE-TEENTH CENTURY.
HIS LITERARY WORKS TRANSMIT SPIRITUAL AND ECOLOGICAL MASSAGES THAT
MAKE US TO THINK AND ACT WITH MORE RESPONSIBILITY IN OUR LIVES.
HIS MOST FAMOUS WORKS ARE: "CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE" (1849) AND "WALDEN" (1854)
IN MY OPINION, I THINK IT WOULD BE VERY USEFUL TO INCLUDE HENRY THOREAU'S
WRITINGS IN OUR LESSON PLANNING BECAUSE THEY INVITE PEOPLE TO BE MORE
REFLECTIVE AND CONSCIOUS IN THE WORLD.
