R. W. Emerson made a lecture tour almost all over Britain from October, 1847 to July, 1848. That was his second visit to Britain. He clearly expressed his own ideas to the British audience, especially to the middle-class citizens, who were emerging with the progress of the industrial revolution. His lecture tour was a great success, giving the audience favorable impressions. During the lecture tour he also could have his own time, freed from his ordinary life, and have a chance to watch British and French society and culture in their transition period. The rapid progress of industrialism and modern technology greatly impressed him. After he returned home, he published English Traits, based on his experience in Britain. His British lecture tour can be considered as an turning point in his life, as he gradually came to be concerned with the social problems and practical sides of human life. His observation of the political and economic turmoil of British and French society accelerated his shift from an egocentric transcendentalist to a realistic and practical philosopher.
