Описание: Ralph Waldo Emerson issued a call for a great poet to capture and immortalize the unique American experience. In 1855, an answer came with Leaves of Grass. Today, this masterful collection remains not only a seminal event in American literature but also the incomparable achievement of one of America's greatest poets--an exuberant, passionate man who loved his country and wrote of it as no other has ever done. Walt Whitman was a singer, thinker, visionary, and citizen extraordinaire. Thoreau called Whitman "probably the greatest democrat that ever lived," and Emerson judged Leaves of Grass as "the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom America has yet contributed." The text presented here is that of the "Deathbed" or ninth edition of Leaves of Grass, published in 1892. The content and grouping of poems is the version authorized by Whitman himself for the final and complete edition of his masterpiece. With a foreword by Billy Collins, an afterword by Peter Davison, and a new introduction by Elisabeth Panttaja Brink

Описание: Whitman is today regarded as America`s Homer or Dante, and his work the touchstone for literary originality in the New World. In Leaves of Grass, he abandoned the rules of traditional poetry - breaking the standard metred line, discarding the obligatory rhyming scheme, and using the vernacular. Emily Dickinson condemned his sexual and physiological allusions as `disgraceful`, but Emerson saw the book as the `most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom thatAmerica has yet contributed`. A century later it is his judgement of this autobiographical vision of the vigour of the American nation that has proved the more enduring. This is the most up-to-date edition for student use, with full critical apparatus.

Embed yourself in nineteenth-century America, with Walt Whitman...
Over 300 period images, including paintings, in full color, and extensive quotes by Walt Whitman and his family and friends (and a few enemies) bring to life the places, people, and tempestuous events of Walt's time: a family harrowed by mental illness; the bloody Civil War; burgeoning, brawling Manhattan and Brooklyn; friends and lovers; literary allies and rivals; and his beloved America, racked by disunion even while racing westward.
"A true Whitmanian feast--for the intellect as well as for the eyes.... Illustrations of Whitman's places, friends, family, disciples, contemporaries--his cities and his rural retreats. The descriptions of his life and times are concise and smart. The book keeps opening up to new facets of Whitman, his work, and his era." -- Ed Folsom, editor of Walt Whitman Quarterly Review and Co-Director of The Walt Whitman Archive
"With Walt Whitman, Himself is perfectly titled for to read of him so closely is to feel his eyes upon you, to sense his company as real as your own. Jean Huets has made a book of marvels and I can't put it down." -- Steve Scafidi, author of To the Bramble and the Briar, and recipient of prizes including Miller Williams Prize, and Library of Virginia Literary Award for Poetry
