He was as ready as ever to justify his idiosyncrasies. "If the writ- ers of the bronze age are most suggestive to thee, confine thyself to them, and leave those of the Augustan age to dust and to the book worms. " Though Thoreau's sense of style was no doubt shaped in some degree by his early immersion in the classics, he was not one to follow tamely the ancient models. Before long he. Was asserting his own taste in the selection of writers who handled plain factual matters con- nected with plo...wland and vineyard, and leaving his Virgil and Horace to teach elegance to those who might value it. In Thoreau's opinion no poetry, either English or classi- cal, adequately expressed the freshness and vigor that he felt in wild nature. All the literature he knew seemed tame and artificial. Only in momentary flashes in works of the highest genius, in Hamlet or the Iliad, could he discover passages whose inevitable perfection suggested the expanding of buds at the approach of spring. He was demanding what no civ- ilized culture could achieve, an unconscious flowering of man's being into art.
