Abstract:Henry David Thoreau was an American transcendentalist writer and preservation thinker in the 19th century. The town of concord was Thoreau’s birthplace where he established a close relationship between man and nature. By the influences of Emerson and his transcendentalism, Thoreau applied this idea to the thinking of the relationship between man and nature. The second part seeks to analyze the ecological implications contained in Walden through close text reading. In Walden, going to nature is a way of achieving self-realization. The voluntary simplicity and diversity of life is the way towards a wiser and saner life. Thoreau criticized man's dominating attitude towards nature; he seeks for self-realization within the circle of nature; he lives in his hometown all his life, he has been viewed as a symbol of bioregionalism; his non-violent protest has been creatively used in the environmental movement today. He becomes the pioneer of the environmental movement.

中文摘要:亨利·大卫.梭罗是19世纪美国超验主义文学家和自然保护主义思想家。康科德镇是梭罗的出生地,正是这片土地使他与自然建立起了亲密的关系。在那里,梭罗受到爱默生及其超验主义的思想的影响,并把这一思想运用到人与自然关系的思考中。第二部分通过对《瓦尔登湖》的文本分析,探讨作品中的生态意蕴。在《瓦尔登湖》,梭罗质疑人类对自然的统治权力;他认为与自然的融合是自我实现的途径;他追求外在简朴、内在丰富和多样化的生活方式。他一生不离故土,被视为生物区域主义的代表人物;他的非暴力主张也被创造性的用于今天的环境运动中。他成为了当代环境主义运动的先驱。
