Description
IN AN 1842 LETTER, SOPHIA HAWTHORNE DESCRIBES AN AFTERNOON DURIing which her husband Nathaniel led Emerson and Thoreau down to a frozen Concord River for some ice-skating: (1) One wonders what possessed Emerson and Thoreau to accompany Hawthorne to the ice. While Hawthorne deports himself with classical decorum (playing the straight man), the formerly dignified Emerson flails against gravity, each instant threatening to thud on the grains, and Thoreau turns rambunctious adolescent, struggling to recover a grace he perhaps never enjoyed.
