Final answer:

Transcendentalists emphasized individualism, intuition, and the importance of nature, but they did not emphasize organized religion.


Step-by-step explanation:

Transcendentalists were a group of American writers and thinkers in the 19th century who emphasized individualism, intuition, and the importance of nature. While they shared many common ideals, one key emphasis that was NOT distinctly American was the rejection of organized religion. Many Transcendentalists were critical of organized religion and instead focused on personal spiritual experiences and the belief in the power of the individual to connect with the divine.
