Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Walt Whitman's creation, inspired by Ralph Waldo Emerson's call for a distinct American poetic voice, challenges traditional poetic forms by celebrating life's sensual pleasures and the individual's connection to nature. Initially published with just twelve poems, "Leaves of Grass" underwent numerous expansions, ultimately featuring over 400 pieces by Whitman's death in 1892. While its themes sparked controversy upon release, the collection has since gained recognition as a cornerstone of American literature, showcasing a bold departure from prior poetic conventions.
