I don’t think he’s odd at all, I live in a house in the woods in a very small town. I go to town to get what I need. I prefer to stay at home and enjoy nature.
I agree. His thoughts on this life and how to live it, are deep and insightful. I see his criticisms of 19th C. society then, equally applicable to today, perhaps even more so. Being a Luddite, seeing cell phones, social media and the surfeit of electronic media we have now, would astound him.
I'm reading Thoreau right now and very impressed. I have tried to find a book for comforting and relaxing a bit in such anxious time. Well, I've found it. It's is the masterpiece. Live in the woods shows us the real value of life. In the moment and in the chores even. Carpe diem.
I find my students generally respond a lot more positively to Thoreau than this teacher's; some get quite excited about his ideas (though he's right in that they would never want to unplug or get rid of their technology). But when we visit the pond, they love it, and when we talk about the symbolism, they get it. They're not going to live his life, but they admire him rather than resenting him.
I have always loved Thoreau. I don't find him preachy. I find him to be a man trying to explain to the world and to himself why he does the things he does. Why he has such a connection to nature. What does the running of a stream have to do with the daily life of a person? How is nature connected to us all? His words may be difficult but the principals are not. We have become so separated from such thoughts and feelings it is difficult for many to understand Thoreau. As a strong believer in self reliance where ever possible, I understand. To push ones self to see what you can do is heady business. The feeling of accomplishment and the realization that you can do more than you thought pushes you to do more. The biggest thing I gained from Thoreau was that our minds are meant to be running streams, growing in strength and knowledge as we go. Not stagnant pools. Learning is a life long process and should not be shunned or avoided but embraced ith eagerness. Go out and learn something new and see what you are capable of.
@@TimotheeLee Unfortunately no. But I have followed Thoreau's line often in my lifetime: "I left the woods for as good a reason as I went there. Perhaps it seemed to me that I had several more lives to live and could not spare any more time for that one."

I love Thoreau's Walden since the Summer of 1986. It is a part of my BA (Honours) dissertation in 1987 called The Politics of a New World: American Individualist Anarchism in the Nineteenth Century
I thoroughly enjoyed this, I have loved Thoreau since I first heard Robin Williams quote him back in '89. Walden is my mecca. Thank you for making this documentary!
*I'm a university lecturer in Japan. Most of my "advanced" courses have been very successful. However, when I try to impart Thoreau's ideas about nonconformity they can almost never understand the difference between them and "selfishness."*
@@519djw6I think that’s by design societally. Societies need to uphold the myth of productivity and “pulling one’s own weight” in order to maintain the status quo. If everybody became non-conformist, then society and the economy as we know it would fall apart. So, we have to drill the ideal of conformity as a moral duty into kids from an early age, to the point where, as you’ve observed, they can’t even imagine following their own path as anything but “selfish.” Duty to society is a useful fiction in a similar way that being in the military is lauded as heroic sacrifice, even if the war you’re fighting may be unjust.
Surely the greatest visionaries early American colonial times posessed were Emerson Thoreau and Hawthorne! Such complexity and simplicity side by side without scaring the landscape and indigenous people! Rarity!
@@Liliquan What? They listed 3 writers primarily known for thier essays, novels, and short stories. They left out Melville by the way. As far as Emily Dickenson, why would she be listed? She was known as a poet, along with Lowell, Longfellow, Howells, and Whitman, none of which were listed either.
He never imposed on anybody to live a certain way. He was just describing what was going through his mind when he was living by Walden. How is it preachy when the reader was the one who chose to read his thoughts? It was never forced.
Most young people today are disconnected from the God within. They don't meditate, not really. They don't walk in the woods alone and look at the budding leaves and flowers in wonder. They're too goal oriented to see their connection with the greater stream of life. To put it simply, they're too disconnected to connect with Thoreau. Me, being Generation X, we ran through the woods and played in the streams all day.... not with the Boy Scouts and not on a class trip....but alone with our minds and God and each other. There are a few exceptions, but I think we were the last generation to be connected. We've since lost the thread....or very nearly lost it.
I’m a millennial and every day after school I went for walks without a phone into the woods… every day. Now I live alone by the woods and go for walks everyday at 34.
It sounds like I should read Thoreau. After living outdoors for 3.5 years I now only own 13 pounds of "stuff". I also found out that you could fall in love with the earth. I mean this!!! I fell in love!!!!
Actor is good so much you think his earnest words sprang from an honest heart. He spoke words in a wordy way, and in a way Mr Thoreau might have put them.
It wasn't until I was an adult grieving my father's death that I began to understand Thoreau's time at Walden. While living in his cabin in the woods, Thoreau completed a book about his final trip with his brother John, a voyage up the Concord and Merrimack rivers. I think John's death was still weighing heavily on Henry during this period, and the time away allowed him the emotional and physical space to process life without his brother.
I love odd ducks...those like me who dance to the beat of our own drummer. Damn proud of it too! I invite you to flash the world your personal Wicked Grin of triumph today! 😁
He thoreauly was a thinker. I learned a lot from his insights. I lived and enjoyed the high life in my younger years until I woke up to the reality of life. I now live a simpler but happier and more peaceful life with my husband in a regional area away from the sin cities of Australia. Here, I'm closer to nature and feel much closer to the Creator.❤
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. Henry David Thoreau
I feel bad for that professor. Instead of trying to teach upper middle class children who are getting a free ride on daddy's money, he should go to places in rural America where school closes on opening day of hunting season. Those young AMERICANS would definitely appreciate him and Thourou.
Thoreau was a very good teacher and started a much sought after school with his brother after college. Not sure why this was ignored in the documentary, other than to make it more sensational.
_By the time Henry David Thoreau had reached my age, he had already been dead for over twenty years._ There is quite a remarkable amount of written material that exists from a man who only saw most of forty-five years on the planet. To really enjoy Thoreau's psyche, in addition to his books, read his journals! - j q t -
After relocating to a new town, we were searching for a new church. We picked the local United Methodist Church, because the during the sermon , the pastor quoted Thoreau.
Our world today is one of promise, like when you turn on your computer, as opposed to the world of nature, which is a realm to be immersed in, that's hard, because you have to slow down.
It is too bad that people are disconnecting from nature. We are a part of nature and are depriving ourselves of the insights that nature provides, it is like an integral part of ourselves is being amputated. An amputation is not the same as loss because the body/spirit always yearns rather than mourns for the integral part of us that has been cut off, we become crippled and stunted from ourselves by severing our ties to nature. It is helpful to have the Internet, it is a good tool but it does not give what nature can. It is a place of mostly intellectual knowledge while nature gives personal hands on experience, personal insights into life and death as well as a deeper connection to the self. We need to slow down, going fast removes us from life; living in fast paced conditions puts us into a state where we are not in touch with the depth of living in the moment. Nature is a healer, this is why Japanese people take forest baths- they walk in the woods in silence absorbing the energy.
I just realized on this day july 4, 2024 that am for the first time reading HDT Walden for the first time and he moved into his cabin on this day all those many years ago. Symbolism? maybe. Probably.
Interesting that Thoreau preferred Nature over the company of Men, yet he was dependent on Men (Emerson) for a place to live, he went to town to gather supplies needed to live at Walden (seeds, plows, clothes, building materials and tools etc). He preferred Nature but was dependent on Men (and Women). God bless.
Hello there, the two states of being you mention are not contradictory. Especially If one substitutes the word dependent for interdependent. It is in the stillness of the mind that perceives the wonder & connectedness of all things where true peace and contentment can be found. Yours, in the Dhamma 🌄
Emerson was most likely an Introvert so needed to be alone to think and process. He would have needed human contact as we all do but would probably have found human company overwhelming. He could also have been a HIghly Sensitive Person (HSP-Elaine Arons PhD) so being alone was necessary not a dislike of people. He may have just be a person who needed to connect with himself, to understand himself and the world around him in a personal and spiritual way.
As the photos show, he kept three chairs: one for self, one for friendship and the third "for society", and had more vistors to his tiny cabin at Walden than at any other time of his life. His extensive journals need to be consulted to also see that he was indeed a mystic of deep and natural auditory and visual experiences. He did not see Nature as we see Nature. He did not "wander" in the woods randomly throwing rocks at things. He saw divinity in Nature. It was his cathedral. ruclips.net/video/D08MV3xkwns/видео.html
Last section of video should be called, “frustrations of a high school teacher trying to make 18 year olds understand Walden like a 40 year old would understand.”
This guy was lost as a goose. Rejected Jesus Christ. So sad. He never found the true purpose or meaning of life. Yet he did gain worldly wisdom which i appreciate.
Thoreau was an admirable naturalist. In the nature journaling group I am member of, we are looking at him as a type of mentor. I am happy to see your recent comment. I wholeheartedly agree. It is sad that he would not give full credit to God through acceptance of Jesus. In our time, with the newage so prevalent, Thoreau's ideas ( as well as Emerson and Bronson's ) is very attractive to many. However, I think people make false assumptions about him though. As someone else observed, for instance, young people now think he was a socialist, which he was not. Again, what a shame that his talents and intellect were not used to build God's kingdom. I believe , however, that God's common grace allowed that Thoreau can be remembered for his accomplishments , wisdom regarding God's creation. 😊 ~ Heather ~
Thats not true he mentions god several times , that was his main reason for spending so much time in nature , you just talk a lot of shit Godboy , pegans worship nature as a god and they are a lot cooler than any self righteous Christian , they keep their religion close to their chest instead of forcing beliefs
You know, I would really enjoy a good documentary about Thoreau. But this isn’t it. Why? Because, although the gentleman has the fight knowledge, he speaks extempore, without a script. We, the audience, must suffer through a thousand ums and ahs, and the sight of a talking head, instead of a carefully crafted series of visuals with well written and directed narration. I give this 6 out of ten for effort and the comment: must do better. Imagine what Ken Burns would do with this rich subject matter.
Sadly, Thoreau's religious philosophy (and many others during this time period) led to Atheism which produced the Hell "under our feet" of the 20th century which resulted in the earthly gods of Stalin, Hitler, Mao and Pol Pot......
That’s not true , how is anti-society a creation of hell on earth ? , everybody has their own choice/path in life . Theroux was most likely the least greedy and most trust worthy, if that’s not close to god
I am not impressed. I have read Walden and found it tedious, humorless, and his philosophy smaller than that of Epicurus and his writings less than those of Walt Whitman.

I'm reading Thoreau right now and very impressed. I have tried to find a book for comforting and relaxing a bit in such anxious time. Well, I've found it. It's is the masterpiece. Live in the woods shows us the real value of life. In the moment and in the chores even. Carpe diem.
Well said Teddy

Then why didn't he build his hut by a flowing stream instead of a stagnant pond?
I first read Walden at the age of 11 or 12. It still resonates with me, maybe more than ever.

Thoreau is an attempt to return to the philosophy of St. Francis of Assisi.
Thoreau actually did measure the depth of the pond.

What a great life: no TV, phone, electronics, or people
