Brook Farm

Japanese: ブルック・ファーム(英語表記)Brook Farm
Brook Farm
An idealistic farm established in April 1841 in West Roxbury, a suburb of Boston, by a follower of American Transcendentalism. Later, influenced by C. Fourier, it was also called the Phalanx. In the words of its leader, George Ripley (1802-1880), the aim of the enterprise was "to secure a more natural unity between the labor of the head and the labor of the hands than exists at present," but financial difficulties led to the farm's collapse as early as 1846. Hawthorne's novel, The Blithedale Romance, was based on his own experiences at the farm.

アメリカのトランセンデンタリズムの信奉者が1841年4月にボストン郊外のウェスト・ロクスベリーに開設した理想主義農場。のちC.フーリエの影響をうけて〈ファランクスPhalanx〉とも呼ばれた。指導者リプリーGeorge Ripley(1802‐80)の言葉を借りると,この事業の目的は〈頭と手の労働の間に現在よりも自然な統一を確保すること〉だったが,早くも46年には財政難から破局を迎えることになる。なおホーソーンの長編《ブライズデール・ロマンス》はこの農場での彼自身の体験を素材にしている。
