520 |a The nineteenth century may have been the age of "our talking America," as Emerson put it, but it was also a time of extraordinary attunement to the unspoken, the elusively present, and the subtly haunting. This book finds in such attunement a valuable rethinking of what it means to encounter the truth. It argues that four key writers - Ralph Waldo Emerson, Frederick Douglass, Herman Melville, and Henry James - work to open up the domain of the witness and the obliging text by articulating quietude's claim on the clamouring world.
