Thoreau’s observation that truth requires the departure or translation from the “monuments” constituted by our words provides the theme of this probing collection. Charting paths to and from Cavell’s own words in The Senses of Walden, these fine essays consider translation and the untranslatable, Cavell’s notions of the ordinary and of speaking out of a sense of impoverishment, and writers from Emerson to Terrence Malick.
