"On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" aka "Civil Disobedience" is a seminal essay by American transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau, first published in 1849 under the title "Resistance to Civil Government."
As you listen to the reading of "Civil Disobedience," consider the historical context of mid-19th century America, a time of intense political and moral upheaval. The issues that Thoreau addresses—justice, government, and personal responsibility—are as relevant today as they were during his lifetime.
