Essays by Ralph Waldo Emerson

Emerson’s Essays: First and Second Series — “Self-Reliance,” “Compensation,” “The Over-Soul,” “Circles,” “Experience,” “Nature” and the rest. The transcendentalist core.

Why it is in the anti-library as well as the library. Kyle already has a book page with 47 highlights, and the Roam capture is tagged Reading Status: Books Read — but the reading is partial. The source recorded on that page is his Medium review of Nature specifically, one piece of the collection, and the highlights are weighted toward it. So the read half lives on the book page and the intent to work through the whole collection lives here.

The two pages are deliberately kept separate rather than merged: the book page is the record of what he has already pulled out of it, and this is the queue entry.
