G. W. Cooke (1903, repr. 1971) and P. Miller (1950; 1957, repr. 1981) This article basically defines the word Transcendentalism. The meaning of the word in literature is a philosophical and literary movement that flourished in New England from about 1836 to 1860.

James Carey explains that to view an event as a “ritual” shifts the focus away from the analysis based on sending and receiving information on a cultural event. Cultural productions otherwise known as music or songs becomes less about what is really going on but what people want you to think is going on. If you listen to the lyrics of songs most will tell you lies and what your mind wants to hear but rarely we hear songs that are telling the truth and they are ridiculed by society for speaking the truth. i think this article helped because it showed me the truth and how our minds can be manipulated in such a way where we are oblivious to the truth.
Transcendentalism as a social movement, 1830-1850, by Anne C. Rose, New Haven, Yale University Press, 1981, xxi, 258 pp. $22.50. The reputation of the American Transcendentalists has had its ups and downs ever since Octavius Brooks Frothingham, who is one of their contemporaries. He is still respected as of 1876.
I feel like this article didn’t help me at all and i am disappointed that I chose this article. I feel like it is on topic but the information in the article is not necessary for this
