	George Ripley
		George Ripley was a Unitarian minister, Transcendentalist, member of the Transcendental Club, and, with his wife Sophia Dana Ripley, cofounder of Brook Farm.

	Ideas--Brook Farm History
		Ripley objected that Norton would "separate the pastor of a church from the sympathies of his people, confine him to a sphere of thought remote from their usual interests, and give an abstract and scholastic character to his services in the pulpit." While still in Northhampton, Ripley sent a letter of resignation to his congregation.
		Ripley stated his general goals for Brook Farm in a letter to Emerson in 1840 and in the Original Constitution of Brook Farm.
		Ripley's primary objective was to end the division of educated and laboring classes.

	George Ripley
		George Ripley (October 3, 1802-July 4, 1880), minister of the Purchase Street Church in Boston, 1826-41, was a central figure in the Transcendentalist movement of the 1830s and 40s, a founder in 1841 of the Brook Farm commune, and later one of America's most prominent literary reviewers and critics.
		As Ripley's description indicates, the underlying assumption of the experiment, and of Fourierist philosophy, was that work necessary to support a community could be distributed in such a way as to match people's tasks with their individual desires and ability to do them.
		Ripley wrote extensively for the Christian Examiner during his Purchase Street Church ministry, and many of his essays there, especially "Schleiermacher as a Theologian," Christian Examiner 20 (1836); and "Martineau's Rationale of Religious Inquiry," Christian Examiner 21 (1836); were influential in the emergence of the Transcendentalist movement.

		Ripley was prominent, if not the leader, in all practical manifestations of the movement; and it was largely by his earnestness and practical energy that certain of its more tangible results were brought about.

		During the greater part of the time of his connection with the Tribune, Ripley was also an adviser of a prominent publishing house, an occasional contributor to the magazines, and a cooperator in several literary undertakings.

	George Ripley Biography \| Dictionary of Literary Biography
		George Ripley (3 October 1802-4 July 1880), who first gained national prominence as a Transcendentalist and the founder of the Brook Farm community, had a secondary but significant journalistic career and his greatest fame during the last quarter century of his life.
		The most significant work in Ripley's life, however, can be traced to the two decades between 1827 and 1847 when he served as a Unitarian minister, a Transcendentalist, a reformer, the founder of Brook Farm, and a Utopian socialist.
		Observers, who chose to see Ripley's enterprise as a high-minded but essentially escapist "room at the Astor House reserved for the Transcendentalists," stressed the diversions and the intellectual life of a community with residents and frequent visitors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, Margaret Fuller, Parker, Emerson, and Alcott.
