Transcendentalism is an American literary, political, philosophical movement associated with Ralph Waldo Emerson, Margaret Fuller, and many contemporaries. Transcendentalism believed that a new era was at hand and were critics of their contemporary society for 'unthinking conformity', and urged each person to transcend the conformity to find 'an original relation to the universe'; and by the 1850s in an increasingly urgent critique of American slavery. Pro-transcendentalism is to be in favor of or in agreement with this philosophy.
