DiKsa [7]

Answer:

"Nature"- Ralph Waldo Emerson.

"Woman in the Nineteenth Century" - Margaret Fuller.

"Walden" - Henry David Thoreau.

""Orphic Sayings" - Amos Bronson Alcott.

Explanation:

Transcendentalism is a philosophical movement that developed during the early 19th century. This philosophical belief held that divinity supersedes all things and the goodness of people and also emphasizes greatly on the themes of individualism and self-reliance along with optimism.

Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote the essay "Nature" where the foundation of the philosophy of transcendentalism is put forth.

Margaret Fuller's "Woman in the Nineteenth Century", became one of the most prominent feminist documents during that time.

"Walden" by Henry David Thoreau reflects on the tranquility and importance of living in nature and simple living.

"Orphic Sayings" by Amos Bronson Alcott contains numerous sayings of the transcendentalist writer, which many other transcendentalist writers think is just silly and unintelligible.
