"As I ponder'd in silence, Returning upon my poems, considering, lingering long, A Phantom arose before me with distrustful aspect, Terrible in beauty, age, and power, The genius of poets of old lands, As to me directing like flame its eyes, With finger pointing to many immortal songs, And menacing voice, What singest thou? it said, Know'st thou not there is but one theme for ever-enduring bards? And that is the theme of War, the fortune of battles, The making of perfect soldiers."
"Leaves of Grass" is a poetry collection by the American poet Walt Whitman (1819–1892). The poems of «Leaves of Grass» are loosely connected, with each representing Whitman's celebration of his philosophy of life and humanity. Walt Whitman is among the most influential poets in the American canon, often called the father of free verse.

Аннотация

Whitman escribió 'Días ejemplares' en la vejez con el propósito de dejar constancia de lo que había sido su vida en unos momentos muy convulsos de la historia de los Estados Unidos. Con motivo de un viaje a la tierra de sus antepasados, concibió el proyecto autobiográfico del que ya había escrito la parte de la Guerra Civil. Además, utilizó fragmentos de sus colaboraciones periodísticas que trataban del viaje que hizo al oeste del país y donde encontró el alma y la energía de los estadounidenses. Esta edición presenta, por primera vez en España, el texto completo del libro e incluye los años de infancia y juventud en Brooklyn, los años que pasó como voluntario en los hospitales de Washington durante la Guerra Civil, la estancia en el campo para recuperarse de la hemiplejía que sufrió y su viaje al oeste. Acompañan a la traducción una introducción que situa en el contexto histórico y literario de la época estos 'Días ejemplares', y notas a pie de página que pretenden despejar las dudas culturales, históricas y textuales que el texto suscita.

Аннотация

Walt Whitman (1819–1892) oli Ameerika mõjukaim luuletaja ja esseist ning üks esimesi ilmakuulsaid vabavärsi meistreid. Oma aja kohta erakordselt liberaalsete vaadetega poeedi esmakordselt 1855. aastal ilmunud „Rohulehed“ peegeldas toona anonüümseks jäänud autori veendumusi mõjudes oma sensuaalsuses paljudele šokeerivalt. Whitman jätkas kogumiku täiendamist elu lõpuni. Viimane, 1892. aastal avaldatud versioon – tuntud ka kui surivoodi väljaanne – sisaldas peaaegu 400 luuletust ning oli tõeline ood vabadusele ja individualismile. Poeet, kelle elutöö sai oma lõpliku vormi autori eluõhtul, jättis surres maha teose, mida peetakse õigustatult Ameerika rahvuseeposeks.

This carefully crafted ebook: «Leaves Of Grass: The First Edition of 1855 + The Death Bed Edition of 1892» is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Leaves of Grass is a poetry collection by Walt Whitman. Though the first edition was published in 1855, Whitman spent his entire life writing Leaves of Grass, revising it in several editions until his death. Whitman was intentional in not organizing the book in any chronological way. Instead, he was concerned with the journey of the poetry. He desired that the reader would see a self formed through the words and themes of the book. He writes poems of a political, social, personal, and sexual nature, all ideas that he will elaborate on in later sections. Walt Whitman published and designed The First Edition of Leaves of Grass in 1855. The edition included twelve untitled poems, which were named in later editions. He included no mention of the author, only his name on the copyright and in one line of the first poem, which is later titled «Song of Myself». Whitman's final edition, the 1891-92 edition, also known as «The Deathbed Edition,» is simply grammatical corrections of the 1881 edition, and the addition of «November Boughs» as a supplement, «Good-Bye my Fancy» as a second supplement, and «A Backward Glance O'er Travell'd Roads» as the closing essay. Walter «Walt» Whitman (1819 – 1892) was an American poet, essayist and journalist. His work was very controversial in its time, particularly his poetry collection Leaves of Grass, which was described as obscene for its overt sexuality.
