Ralph Waldo
Emerson (1803-1882)
A Concordance to the Later Lectures of Ralph Waldo
Emerson
Compiled by
Mila
Tasseva-Kurkchieva
Note:
In the printed version of the Emerson's later lectures, there are many
words with diacritics or ligatures, which we have had to substitute for the closest English
characters. We also had to exclude from the concordance the few occasions
where Greek characters were used.
To
Get Started: After clicking "Enter the Concordance" below, a
separate browser window will open with three frames, as well as an
alphabetical list across the top that can be used to access later or
deeper word-lists. The left frame will list the concorded words. If
you click on a word in the word-list, the upper-right frame will show
occurrences of this word, the word itself appearing in red. To the
right of each occurrence will be a reference (e.g. 2 NHI71 51), the
first number in which is the number of the volume, followed by the title
or abbreviation of the lecture (titles and abbreviations listed
below), followed by the page number in the printed version
on which the concorded word appears. Clicking on this reference will
load the relevant text of the lecture into the lower-right frame with the
concorded word appearing in the first or second of the top lines in the
frame.
