La Désobéissance civile, titre original Civil Disobedience est un essai de Henry David Thoreau publié en 1849. H.D. Thoreau écrit sur le thème de la désobéissance civile, en se fondant sur son expérience personnelle. En juillet 1846, Thoreau fut emprisonné, n'ayant volontairement pas payé un impôt à l'état américain, car il lui reprochait de soutenir l'esclavage qui régnait alors dans le Sud et de mener une guerre contre le Mexique. Il fut content d'être incarcéré pour cet acte posé. Il ne passa qu'une nuit en prison, car son entourage paya la caution, ce qui le rendit furieux. Avec le Discours de la servitude volontaire d'Étienne de La Boétie, La désobéissance civile est un ouvrage précurseur du concept de la désobéissance civile.

Walden, and on the Duty of Civil Disobedience

Le roman raconte la vie que Thoreau a pass�e dans une cabane pendant deux ans, deux mois et deux jours, dans la for�t appartenant � son ami et mentor Ralph Waldo Emerson, jouxtant l'�tang de Walden (Walden Pond), non loin de ses amis et de sa famille qui r�sidaient � Concord, dans le Massachusetts.Walden est �crit de telle fa�on que le s�jour semble durer un an seulement. La narration suit les changements de saisons et Thoreau pr�sente ses pens�es, observations et sp�culations. Il d�voile �galement comment, au contact de l'�l�ment naturel, l'individu peut se renouveler et se m�tamorphoser, prendre conscience enfin de la n�cessit� de fondre toute action et toute �thique sur le rythme des �l�ments.Walden n'est ni un roman ni une v�ritable autobiographie, ni un journal naturaliste. Sa dimension critique � l'encontre du monde occidental en fait un v�ritable pamphlet. La part de l'imagination est cons�quente et Thoreau consacre de nombreuses sc�nes � d�crire l'�tang de Walden mais aussi les animaux et la fa�on dont les gens le consid�rent suite � son isolement, tout en d�gageant des conclusions philosophiques. Ces longs passages concernant la nature appartiennent � la tradition transcendantaliste et appellent � refondre l'�thique.Plus d'un si�cle plus tard, Walden reste une oeuvre phare de la litt�rature am�ricaine et l'ouvrage fondateur du genre litt�raire du nature writing. La pens�e �cologiste moderne voit �galement en Walden le roman du retour � la nature et de la conscience environnementale. Les observations et sp�culations de Thoreau font en effet de la nature, dans le r�cit, un protagoniste � part enti�re. Walden est enfin la lente introspection de Thoreau, le fil directeur d'une recherche du sens dans un monde de plus en plus marqu� par l'industrialisation et la transformation de l'espace.
