Explanation:

Henry Thoreau was part of the transcendentalist, religious, literary and philosophical movement. He was a firm believer of the need of social reforms starting from an individual.

He wrote the essay "Civil Disobedience" based on his experience of imprisonment in July 1846. This imprisonment was a result of his refusal to pay taxes as a protest against the United States war on Mexico. He is of the opinion that people have the right to protest against any laws that they find unjust and wrong. Right after he wonders if he could have been of any service for the community, he thought of the significance of the wall that was between himself and others.
