Download or read book Walt Whitman written by James Thomson and published by . This book was released on 2002-12-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An early study of Whitman and his poetry by the 19th century British poet. His study of Whitman is interesting in the light of his own haphazard existence and history of melancholia, and it deserves comparison with his studies of other great poets. This appreciation of Whitman is from an unexpected source: the saturnine poet of "The City of Dreadful Night!" These two essays on Whitman first appeared in magazines in 1874 and 1881-2. They were collected and first printed in book form, with an introduction by Bertram Dobell, in 1910.

Download or read book Walt Whitman and the Civil War written by Ted Genoways and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after the third edition of Leaves of Grass was published, in 1860, Walt Whitman seemed to drop off the literary map, not to emerge again until his brother George was wounded at Fredericksburg two and a half years later. Past critics have tended to read this silence as evidence of Whitman's indifference to the Civil War during its critical early months. In this penetrating, original, and beautifully written book, Ted Genoways reconstructs those forgotten years—locating Whitman directly through unpublished letters and never-before-seen manuscripts, as well as mapping his associations through rare period newspapers and magazines in which he published. Genoways's account fills a major gap in Whitman's biography and debunks the myth that Whitman was unaffected by the country's march to war. Instead, Walt Whitman and the Civil War reveals the poet's active participation in the early Civil War period and elucidates his shock at the horrors of war months before his legendary journey to Fredericksburg, correcting in part the poet's famous assertion that the "real war will never get in the books."

Download or read book The Evolution of Walt Whitman written by Roger Asselineau and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 1999-09 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now, nearly forty years after its original translation into English, Roger Asselineau's complete and magisterial biography of Walt Whitman will remind readers of the complex weave of traditions in Whitman scholarship. It is startling to recognize how much of our current understanding of Whitman was already articulated by Asselineau nearly half a century ago. Throughout its eight hundred pages, The Evolution of Walt Whitman speaks with authority on a vast range of topics that define both Whitman the man and Whitman the mythical personage. Remarkably, most of these discussions remain fresh and relevant, and that is in part because they have been so influential. In particular, The Evolution of Walt Whitman inaugurated the study of Leaves of Grass as a lifelong work in progress, and it marked the end of the habit of talking about Leaves as if it were a single unified book. Asselineau saw Whitman's poetry “not as a body of static data but as a constantly changing continuum whose evolution must be carefully observed.” Throughout Evolution, Asselineau placed himself in the role of the observer, analyzing Whitman's development with a kind of scientific detachment. But behind this objective persona burned the soul of a risk taker who was willing to rewrite Whitman studies by bravely proposing what was then a controversial biographical source for Whitman's art—his homosexual desires. The Evolution of Walt Whitman is a reminder that extraordinary works of criticism never exist in and of themselves. In this expanded edition, Roger Asselineau has provided a new essay summarizing his own continuing journey with Whitman. A foreword by Ed Folsom, editor of the Walt Whitman Quarterly, regards Evolution as the genesis of contemporary Whitman studies.
