This book argues that Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., helps us see the law through an Emersonian lens by the way in which he wrote his judicial dissents. Holmes s literary style mimics and enacts two characteristics of Ralph Waldo Emerson s thought: superfluity and the poetics of transition, concepts ascribed to Emerson and developed by the literary critic Richard Poirier.
