It's difficult to ascertain its meaning out of context.
What is the entire question?
Hello, can someone please help me? I have to do an assignment, and one of the questions ends in a phrase that I don't understand.
The words are "crossing the common."
Thanks if anyone can help. I've been stuck ever since I got to it, and the online results and my family members aren't helping much.

The full question is:
"How does this idea affect the meaning of the preceding description of Emerson's experience crossing the common?"
"How does this idea affect the meaning of the preceding description of Emerson's experience crossing the common?"
The question before was asking me if I found seeing the world in different ways was true. For example, a sad person will see a cold, empty world, while a happier person will see a wonderful world. I have found this to be true. Then, it goes to that question. I believe it's talking about the quote from "Nature."
"Nature" ~ "Nature always wears the colors of the spirit. To a man laboring under calamity, the heat of his own fire hath sadness in it."
"Nature" ~ "Nature always wears the colors of the spirit. To a man laboring under calamity, the heat of his own fire hath sadness in it."
Do you need more information on the assignment? I'm not at my best when it comes to the Transcendentalists. American Romanticism is just not my thing.
hi ,to me it means"behaving out of look"
Are you talking about what the quoted part means, or you talking about "crossing the common?"
Can you also explain how?
Nevermind, I think I got it.
Thanks to anyone who tried.
