SUMMARY:"Worthy to be Any Man's Friend": Lecture on Henry David Thoreau
DESCRIPTION:Join historian Richard Smith for a lecture in Story Chapel on Henry David Thoreau and notable figures in Mount Auburn.\n\n\n\nHenry David Thoreau was one of the most important and influential writers of the 19th Century. And while he isn’t buried in Mount Auburn Cemetery\, he was well acquainted with many of the literary and political figures who are. \nJoin Concord historian Richard Smith for a presentation about Henry Thoreau and some of his famous friends. The “Hermit of Walden Pond” wasn’t such a hermit after all. Longfellow\, Charles Sumner and Margaret Fuller are just some of the notable figures who are buried here that Thoreau knew and associated with. And he even liked some of them! \nFollowing the lecture\, Richard will lead a walk to see some of the graves of notable figures. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE>>\nExperience a deeper connection to Mount Auburn Cemetery with free or discounted access to all our public programs and special events by joining the Friends of Mount Auburn.
