Re-Scripting Whitman is an exciting and rewarding introduction for beginning readers and scholars alike. In the words of poet and critic Ed Folsom, "Whitman's word arrives twenty decades late as the missing connection between literature and poetry." The book surveys Whitman's life and works, focusing especially on the evolving masterpiece of Leaves of Grass, and uncovers the evidence for Whitman's belief that he literally embodied himself in his writing. After presenting the text and introducing it to avid readers, the second section delves into Whitman' s legacy and suggestions for further reading, made poignantly poignant in an age of marginalization of complex literary analysis and discourse.With its creative approach, accessible language, and appealing visual design, Re-scripting Walt Whitmen is certain to captivate learners and fans alike as it unlocks the secrets and surprises at the center of one of America's most celebrated, fascinating, and fun paradoxes.
