WHITMAN, SO EXPLICIT, SO EROTIC POET

Mi first lesson at Harvard: Whitman is the poet of a rich country. He claims to be as infinite as a leaf of grass. Since his first verse, he goes far away. No doubt: he is the voice of The United States of America. His ‘big scale’ poetry voice has been leading the american culture in some way or another. Some day, the best economists of this world must treat this awesome stuff. It is not worthless. In fact, it is a poetrical tone turning into an economical factor, involving the use of a strong, green metaphor called ‘dolar’.

On the other hand, the rest of this continent is poor. Our poets think poorly. They claim to be the shadow of a ghost in hunger strike. Perhaps they ignore that Whitman is still an erotic, explicit, capitalist poet in a capitalist world.

Theme for an essay: ¡The impact of Whitman poems on the american economy!

Walter Whitman Sr. was of English stock, and his marriage in 1816 to Louisa Van Velsor, of Dutch and Welsh stock, led to what Walt always considered a fertile tension in the Whitman children between a more smoldering, brooding Puritanical temperament and a sunnier, more outgoing Dutch disposition. Whitman’s father was a stern and sometimes hot-tempered man, maybe an alcoholic, whom Whitman respected but for whom he never felt a great deal of affection. His mother, on the other hand, served throughout his life as his emotional touchstone. There was a special affectional bond between Whitman and his mother, and the long correspondence between them records a kind of partnership in attempting to deal with the family crises that mounted over the years, as Jesse became mentally unstable and violent and eventually had to be institutionalized, as Hannah entered a disastrous marriage with an abusive husband, as Andrew became an alcoholic and married a prostitute before dying of ill health in his 30s, and as Edward required increasingly dedicated care.

that was impressive.
