[nature sounds] >> it is interesting that very often readers of walden when they first come to the pond are a little puzzled, maybe a little disappointed because when you read walden, you really are expecting to be just amazed at the landscape. the fact that thoreau could be every day just staggered by a landscape as humble as this, takes a little getting used to. it was just a little pond and now it is an icon of american literary history. henry david thoreau first came here as a little boy and he remembered that excursion long after so he came here with his family, actually to gather sand for his father's sandpaper manufacturing enterprise, but he came here to live. it was on july 4, 1845, that he came to live and was out here for two years. his friend, ralph waldo emerson, had not long before bought the property we are standing on as a woodlot, the soil around wa

loved making them up out loud as they walked, taking a walk in the area around walden pond with henry david thoreau. she would also record and do a lot of writing as well. she was probably writing every day. she loved it. it was a release for her as well. an outlet. she did not have a tremendous amount of success at first but she had some success almost from the beginning in the sense that she had short stories and poems published early on. those enough to keep her going. at one juncture when she was teaching school in boston and fields, ad with james famous publisher and his wife annie, she showed him some of her writing. she was hopeful that -- he was living in the household and maybe he would be interested. he told her, stick to your , you can'tiss alcott write. that made her more determined. on she paid him back a loan that he at kindly given her and said, with all due respect, i think i shall stick to my writing as it pays rather better than my teaching. she really did come full circle with it and became a big financial success eventually. coming up to the second floor, we have the par

i think the most plausible one is that henry david thoreau, a century earlier, had once written -- nothing is so much to be feared as fear. that is a line that is awfully close to the one inserted into the speech for roosevelt to deliver. so it may be thoreau that we have to thank for that. there are other theories about that. the last draft i want to show you is the actual reading copy. this is page one of the actual reading copy that roosevelt used on march 4, 1933. what is interesting about this draft is that you see a little line at the top that roosevelt added. we know he wrote that in pencil while he was waiting in the capitol building to go out and deliver the speech. the line as you see it on the page is "this is a day of consecration." and he wrote a day of national consecration. up until the age of 39, roosevelt had a charmed life including a political career that was on an upward trajectory. in 1920, he had been the democratic party's candidate for vice president. he was widely seen as a candidate for president in 1924 or 1928. however, at this point in his life, tragedy struck.

david finkelstein and the member from the chinese international security studies will address the areas of convergence and implications of what we identified and analyzed in military spheres. as dr. henry said, we endeavored to make these papers that would be based on the u.s. national interest and u.s. strategy on our side and on the chinese national interest and chinese strategy on the chinese side. we did these in consultation with each other, meaning that for example on the asia-pacific paper, bonnie and i and colleagues talked about structuring the themes and what key issues to address. but we were very clear on several things, no veto on the other side of this paper. it had to be an honest and forthright explanation of interest and strategy from that country's perspective. we informed and talked to our governments but the u.s. government and the chinese government did not review or approve these papers. they're independent. we are all independent scholars. and so what weapon presented is not u.s. or china government policy, but we think it represents a pretty good consensus point about how these issues are viewed in each country. of course, there are multiple views about military
