Ralph Waldo Emerson is one of the most important figures in the history of American thought, religion, and literature. The vitality of his writings and the unsettling power of his example continue to influence us more than a hundred years after his death. Now Robert D. Richardson Jr. brings to life an Emerson very different from the old stereotype of the passionless Sage of Concord.

Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868–1937) beschrieb das Zeitgeschehen der Jahre 1933-37. Seine Berichterstattungen geben präzise Einblicke in die politischen und gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen und sind Zeugnisse vom Leben und Denken eines aufgeklärten europäischen Intellektuellen. Kessler floh schon im März 1933 nach Frankreich und Spanien. Im Jahr 1935 wurden seine Bücher öffentlich verbrannt, aber bis zu seinem Tod führte er Gespräche mit Zeitgenossen und hielt die politischen Ereignisse akribisch fest. Kesslers Berichte sind ein wichtiger Beitrag zur Geschichtsschreibung dieser Zeit.

One of France's greatest writers, Voltaire was frequently persecuted for his ideas and as a result, spent time in the famed Bastille. He fled his native land for England in 1726, at which time he witnessed the differences between the two countries. His celebrated Letters on England was first published in that nation in 1733 and contained 24 succinct letters on subjects ranging from religion and politics, to trade, the arts, philosophy, and science.

No one could have predicted even two years ago that an African American would take the oath of office as president of the United States in January of 2009. For many, the occasion marks the climax to the civil rights movement and the fulfillment of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s dream that Americans could be judged on the content of their character and not the color of their skin. This collection, with about 400 letters from Americans of all walks of life, is being created to stand as a symbol of this exciting moment in history.

Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 - 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen im Jahr 1928. Das Erscheinen seines Rathenau-Buches schlägt hohe Wellen. Der Kulturbetrieb ist begeistert. Aber der Geheimdienst beanstandet Textpassagen und diplomatische Verstimmungen werden ausgelöst. Ansonsten ist "der Gesellschaftsmensch" Kessler sehr umtriebig. Oft in Frankreich aber auch in Berlin. Zum Beispiel zur Aufführung der brandneuen "Dreigroschenoper". Berührend ist das Wiedersehen mit dem Tänzer Vaslav Nijinsky.
