    A Nightmare World Flames. They were all I could see as I stared at the lit cigarette igniting the beginning of my death.

    My visual project of transcendentalism is a wreath with pictures and symbols of each principal from the chart. The first principle used is nature. Transcendentalists believed “We should live close to nature‚ for it is our greatest teacher. Nature is emblematic‚ and understanding its language and lessons can bring us closer to god. In fact‚ Nature = God. The words Nature‚ God Universe‚ Over-Soul‚ etc. all mean the same thing. They call it Brahma. Brahma‚ or God‚ is everything‚ but nothing in particular”

    Transcendentalism sets the foundation of writing today. The overall message inspires individuals to gain a better understanding of their true identity and knowledge.

Our Town stands out to me because it doesn’t use any props‚ and its strong symbolism that makes a point without
