In Walden, Thoreau consistently is trying to connect with nature because for him, nature is a model for almost everything good. ... While at Walden, Thoreau lived quite independently of time. ...
Thoreau goes to Walden Pond to escape the danger of giving into societies games. As a hermit at Walden Pond, Thoreau describes society as an ungrateful master. ... As we read in Walden: “…men labor under a mistake. ... ” (Thoreau 109)
With beautiful mornings, stunning scenery, and revelry in the simple and exotic banalities of life, Walden is an experience in living. Thoreaus purpose for writing Walden is clearly stated: "As I have said, I do not propose to write an ode to dejection, but to brag as lustily as chanticleer in the morning, standing on his roost, if only to wake my neighbors up" (Thoreau 168). ... Once Thoreau’s journey at Walden Pond was over, he returned to his former life among the living.
