Transcendentalism is a philosophical movement that developed in the late s and s in the eastern United States. A core belief is in the inherent goodness of people and nature, and while society and its institutions have corrupted the purity of the individual, people are at their best when truly "self-reliant" and independent.. Transcendentalism emphasizes subjective intuition . Peirce, James, and Dewey were reared in the atmosphere of transcendentalism, and transcendentalists they remained at the core. But pragmatism has an equally strong affiliation with the American enlightenment, in particular with Jefferson, whose thought best represented the America Turgot called "the hope of the world.".
