It published many of their best-known literary works and critical writings, including reviews and translations. It also introduced the writings of Henry David Thoreau and other leading writers and social reformers connected with the Transcendentalist group and Brook Farm utopian community.This set of three consecutive issues contains several poems and essays by Emerson, as well as all three of his *Lectures on the Times:* ("Introductory Lecture"; "The Conservative"; "The Transcendentalist"). Also included are eight poems by Thoreau, and his *Natural History of Massachusetts*, as well as literary works and reviews by Margaret Fuller. An important and scarce run of three issues in original wrappers, the issues are usually encountered bound together. A detailed list of selected contributions is available.
