When Walt Whitman self-published his Leaves of Grass in July 1855, he altered the course of literary history. One of the greatest masterpieces of American literature, it redefined the rules of poetry while describing the soul of the American character.
Throughout his great career, Whitman continuously revised, expanded, and republished Leaves of Grass, but as Harold Bloom reminds us, the book that matters most is the 1855 original. In celebration of the poem's 150th anniversary, Penguin Classics proudly presents the 1855 text in its original and complete form, with a specially commissioned introductory essay by Harold Bloom.
I celebrate myself, and sing myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.
"Whitman, the great poet, has meant so much to me. Whitman the one man breaking a way ahead. Whitman the one pioneer . . . Ahead of Whitman, nothing. Ahead of all poets, pioneering into the wilderness of unopened life, Whitman. Beyond him, none." —D. H. Lawrence

《Oh, Captain! My Captain!》
评分对诗歌抱有的敬畏之心,皆天分不足。况且惠特曼不是迷人的诗人,他的热情高亢和现实关怀,我都不感亲近。更重要的,诗歌到底是一点还是一线,该执着一词一句,还是纲领,实在困惑不已。
评分读诗就是这样,读不懂的时候觉得诗人是在故弄玄虚,读懂的时候又觉得,我去 就这我也能写几百行...
评分太过直白
评分Pour his heart into readers’ ears in the name of democracy and equality. Hymn to body.
