INTRODUCTION

SUPPLEMENT
TWO
Thanks
to Robert Sattelraeyer
*
s
Thoreau'
Reading
we
have been
able during
the two
years
since
its publication
to see
the
bib-
liographical
forest
better than the
clumps
of trees which comprised
the
earlier
lists
with
the
happy result
that we
can
now reverse
the
binoculars
and (to
change
the
figure)
plant some
new trees in
that forest and
clear
away some
of the
accumulated
underbrush.
In
one respect
a good bibliography is
like
a
woman's
dress
never
done
,
never definitive
and
ever
being
lengthened
or
trimmed.
That
is both
the glory and irony
of
itl
In
this
second instalment
or
expansion
of
Sattelmeyer ' s useful
work
I
have contin-
ued the
method set
forth
in
the
first
(
ARLR
.
Ill,
297),
hoping
to add
a
third
in
the
fu-
ture
as
the next Princeton volumes
appear.
Meanwhile,
however,
much
intelligent
guess-
ing
must
be undertaken and
tested
concerning
books
and
articles
Thoreau
possibly
read,
consulted
or skimmed
a
necessity
if
we
are
to
bridge
some
of the still
serious
gaps
in
the record.
Here
are
a
few of
them:
(1)
At
least
one page
of his
borrowings at
Harvard
Library
has been
cut
out
of
the ledgers
possibly at the
turn of
the
century by
a
col-
lector of literary autographs, thereby deny-
ing
us
proof
of several months
of
significant
reading.
(2)
His
sophomore and
junior with-
drawals from the library
of
the
Institute
of
1770 are also
missing
probably destroyed
so
that we may
never have
the evidence of
two
years of
happy
extracurricular reading at
the
fraternity
in
which he
debated, spouted
and
found intellectual
companionship
among
intim-
ate
friends.
(3)
Only
a
few loose
pages,
moreover,
survive
of
his
Harvard commonplace
book
(his Index Rerum
)
in
which
he
indexed
ideas
taken
from his reading.
(4)
No
extant
charging registers
in
several New York libra-
ries provide
traces
of his intensive reading
during 1843.
(5)
The
Concord
Town
Library,
which
for
twenty
years
supplied
him
with
a
remarkable
array
of periodicals as well as
a
complete file
of
the
Massachusetts
Histori-
cal Society's
Collections
,
seems to
have
kept
no
tab on
his visits
and
frequent borrowings,
or,
if
it
originally
had
check-out
papers,
they were probably destroyed
when
it
became
the
Concord Free
Public
Library
(6)
We are
still largely
ignorant
of
his vast reading
in periodicals and newspapers
because
we do
not
skim as
he seems to
have
done
from
cover
to
cover
everything
within
reach
pertinent
to
his
interests.
Unless
we
follow
his
ex-
ample
and
survey
the
complete
contents of
all
periodicals
that
he
handled
or
ought
to
have
handled
,
I
fear
we shall
continue
ignorant of
much
of
his profitable
reading and
miss
many
interesting
discoveries.
In
this
connection,
I
include
at the
end
of
the
present study
such
a
scanning of
twen-
ty-five
volumes
of
a
periodical with
which
Thoreau
was
definitely
acquainted from
his
Harvard
days into
his
maturity
the
North
American
Review .
For whatever
it
may
prove
to
be
worth
I submit
it as
a
hypothetical
bibliography
of
influences upon
his life and
thinking, hoping
that
it
may
prove
useful
or
at
least
interesting
to scholars
who may
wrestle
sooner
or
later
with the still un-
edited
notebooks
on
natural phenomena
and
the
Indians.

61: The

that the

saw
that
remarkable
man,
Henry
Thor-
eau,
he came
quietly into Mr.
Emerson's
study to
get
a
volume
of
Pliny's
letters.
Expecting
to
see
no
one,
and
accustomed
to
attend
without distraction
to
the
business
at hand,
he
was
as
quietly
going
out,
when
the
host
spoke to
him,
and
without surprise,
and
with
unsmiling
courtesy,
Thoreau greeted
his
friends.
