Transcendental vs. Antitrenscendental

I prefer the works of the transcendental writers because I like the more cheerful nature of the transcendentalists.  They have a more positive outlook because of their theory that nature is good, people are good, and the truth can be found.  This theory results in stories that are more likeable to read about like the story Walden.  Even though it is tough to read, the message is good, and the description is positive.  Nature is always a great topic to read about.
