Hi!
This highly depends on what’s most effective for you. If I were your tutor
[1], I’d hear “but i wanna to start from emacs and emacs lisp,” and take
that as a strong indicator that this path (first exploring Emacs) might be
effective for you.
Useful to probe more deeply into two threads:
Oh, and I'd try to figure out if this theory has any merit: do things like
paredit and yasnippet help you intuitively think in terms of manipulating
structure rather than text? Because in Clojure, you're constantly
transforming and pushing around units of data.

You can definitely start using Emacs without having to learn Emacs Lisp.
Unless you're planning to write some custom extensions or customize your
setup wildly you can go a very long way with just cursory knowledge of
Emacs Lisp. At any rate - knowing any Lisp dialect makes it relatively easy
to
Ops, I meant to say CCW, not CCC. :-)

Agree with Andy. As a starter, it is better and faster to learn Clojure alone.
After you grasped one, the other lisps will be easy to follow.
Emacs has been the de facto goto choice for most here, it is highly recommended
to invest into it. Other than that, there're vim fireplace, as well as
If your goal is to learn Clojure, I would recommend not learning Emacs Lisp
at the same time, just to avoid confusion that may arise in your mind due
to the differences between the two.
You can use Emacs without learning Emacs Lisp with no problem. I've used
Emacs for 20 years, and only know a
