Download or read book Walt Whitman s America written by David S. Reynolds and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1996-03-19 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Bancroft Prize and the Ambassador Book Award and Finalist for the National for the Book Critics Circle Award In his poetry Walt Whitman set out to encompass all of America and in so doing heal its deepening divisions. This magisterial biography demonstrates the epic scale of his achievement, as well as the dreams and anxieties that impelled it, for it places the poet securely within the political and cultural context of his age. Combing through the full range of Whitman's writing, David Reynolds shows how Whitman gathered inspiration from every stratum of nineteenth-century American life: the convulsions of slavery and depression; the raffish dandyism of the Bowery "b'hoys"; the exuberant rhetoric of actors, orators, and divines. We see how Whitman reconciled his own sexuality with contemporary social mores and how his energetic courtship of the public presaged the vogues of advertising and celebrity. Brilliantly researched, captivatingly told, Walt Whitman's America is a triumphant work of scholarship that breathes new life into the biographical genre.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Walt Whitman: The Prophet-Poet In the early weeks of the year of 1907 my eyes were very bad; evenings I could read but little; sometimes it was a few pages, sometimes only a few lines, then I must close the book and brood, ponder, think over what I had read. For such form of reading the poets surpassed all others, and I soon found that Whitman sur passed the other poets; that from him I received the strongest stirrings of my emotions and thoughts. Thereupon I turned to study this man Whit man; I had access to a fine private collection of Whitman matter, as well as the public libra ries, and for several we. -s I saturated myself with Whitman; what he had written, what had been written about him. That was six years ago, but Whitman does not lose his grip on me he lasts, he wears he touches life and feel ing at so many places that I believe he will last and wear.

Download or read book A Life of Walt Whitman Classic Reprint written by Henry Bryan Binns and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Life of Walt Whitman Again, while seeking to avoid excursions into literary criticism, it has seemed to me to be impossible to draw a real portrait of the man without attempting some interpretation of his books and the quotation from them of characteristic passages, for they are the record of his personal attitude towards the problems most intimately affecting his life. I trust that this part of my work may at any rate offer some suggestions to the serious student of Whitman. Since he touched life at many points, it has been full of pitfalls; and if among them I should prove but a blind leader, I can only hope that those who follow will keep Open e es. Ywhitman has made his biography the more difficult to write by demanding that he should be studied in relation to his time; to fulfil this requirement was beyond my scope, but I have here and there suggested the more notable outlines, within which the reader will supply details from his own memory. As I have written especially for my own countrymen, I have ventured to remind the reader of some of those elementary facts of American history of which we English are too easily forgetful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Walt Whitman: With Extracts From His Letters and Remarks on His Writings It is enormously difficult to write on Whitman. No one has quite succeeded up to this time. This I am able to affirm from experience for some years ago I formed large collections for a work on Whitman. I have masses of ms. By me on the subject, which I found to be so formless, so obscure, so inede quate to the man, and yet so blatant and exaggerated, that I put my work aside and acknowledged to myself its failure.

The volume is thoroughly indexed. Based on evidence gathered from personal inspection of multiple copies of Whitman’s works in American, Canadian, British, and New Zealand libraries, Myerson’s Supplement exemplifies the highest standards of bibliographic research.
