Walden and Civil Disobedience

In'Walden', Thoreau explains how separating oneself from the world of men can truly awaken the sleeping self. Thoreau holds fast to the notion that you have not truly existed until you adopt such a lifestyle and only then can you reenter society, as an enlightened being.

In ,,Walden", Thoreau explica modul in care despartirea de lumea oamenilor poate trezi cu adevarat sinele adormit. Thoreau tine ferm de ideea ca nu ai existat cu adevarat pana cand nu adopti un astfel de stil de viata si abia atunci poti reintra in societate, ca o fiinta iluminata.
