  3. If you're referring to the American Transcendentalist group centered around R.W. Emerson, the best brief answer is this: intuitionism; naturalistic pantheism; individualism.

    Emerson said this: "We have had many harbingers and forerunners; but of a purely spiritual life, history has afforded no example. I mean, we have yet no man who has leaned entirely on his character, and eaten angels' food; who, trusting to his sentiments, found life made of miracles; who, working for universal aims, found himself fed, he knew not how; clothed, sheltered, and weaponed, he knew not how, and yet it was done by his own hands."

    The transcendentalist aspiration was to bring that new man into existence, the character Emerson described of whom history until then "afforded no example."
