Abstract
ABSTRACTIn her analysis of the impersonal in the writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson, not only does Sharon Cameron identify Emerson’s poet as a ‘practitioner of the impersonal’, she also notes that a double voice is at work throughout ‘The Poet’. This article intends to take on the exploration of the links between the impersonal and Emerson’s poet, to argue that the impersonal voice of the essays may refer back to the ideal poet. Doing so, I suggest that the poet can be conceived of as Emerson’s heteronym.
