Produktinformationen "Walt Whitman in Mickle Street"
Walt Whitman (1819 - 1892) was an American essayist, poet, and journalist who was pivotal to the transition from transcendentalism to realism. His work was notably divisive and claimed by many to be obscene when first published, but he is now considered to be one of the most influential people in the American poetic canon and the "father of free verse". This volume contains an account by Elizabeth Leavitt Keller (1839-1928) of Whitman's life at his home on Mickle Street in New Jersey, United States; where he resided-mostly bedridden-following a paralytic stroke in 1873. Contents include: "Mary Oakes Davis", "Walt Whitman's Home", "The New Regime", "Curious Neighbours", "Mr. Whitman Drives", "Brooms, Bills and Mental Chloroform", "Visiting and Visitors", "A Bust and a Painting", "Rest-And Routine", "A Shock, and Some Changes", "Anchored", etc. Other notable works by this author include: "Franklin Evans" (1842), "Life and Adventures of Jack Engle" (1852), and "Leaves of Grass" (1855). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
