Emerson agrees to come to the Lyceum on the 24th of December. Emerson established the foundation for transcendentalism, a philosophy derived in part from European Romanticism, becoming one of its most well-known spokespersons with the publication of _Nature_ (1836) and "The American Scholar." Actively writing essays, lectures, and poems during the period known as the American renaissance (1835-65), Emerson also helped launch _The Dial_ (1840) a magazine for expressing transcendental philosophies and ideas.
