Transcending the World: Now and Then

Craig Green is a musician and the founder of Songtuary, a communal singing group from Charlottesville, Virginia that engages people of all traditions to explore the resonance of their voices outdoors. One of his earliest inspirations – the Transcendentalism he discovered as a teen. Then we hear from Dr. Robert A. Gross, the Bancroft Prize-winning historian whose new book “The Transcendentalists and Their World” brings Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau to the fore. Emerson is the father of Transcendentalism, the first distinctly American philosophical and spiritual movement. Dr. Gross connects the dots between these 19th-century thinkers and today’s fastest-growing segment of the American religious landscape, the “spiritual but not religious,” or “Nones.”
