C) Emerson believed that, in keeping with the main ideals of transcendentalism, there should be a focus on individuality, independence both thought and attitude. This answer is correct.

D) This was a topic that writers like Emerson did not hold opinion for.

3. D

A) Emerson wrote the Concord Hymn to celebrate independence. He wouldn't regret the minutemen who fired the first shots of the battle.

B) Emerson was not bewildered when writing this. His diction does not condemn the people of America like the minute men for seeking independence.

C) The best adjective to explain his attitude in the hymn would not be gratitude, although he may feel it. His emotions that he's sharing with the audience in the hymn are stronger than that.

D) Awe is an adjective that properly captures the author's attitude towards the minute men who fought for independence in the Battle of Concord.
