Walt Whitman’s novel "The Life and Adventures of Jack Engle" found after 150 years Automatic translate

NEW YORK. Thanks to the archives of The Sunday Dispatch, Walt Whitman’s creative heritage has expanded.

And without the sensational findings of recent times, the work of the American writer and publicist Walt Whitman (Walt Whitman) did not threaten oblivion. The revolutionary format of versification proposed by him - a free verse or a verbal - was at first controversial. The rejection of the classical manner of presentation with a clear size and well-shaped rhymes seemed too unusual. Whitman’s poetry lived, breathed, torn beyond the bounding framework of traditions and patterns, reminiscent of a rapidly growing child, on whom clothing became cramped at the seams. The Leaves of Grass collection was like a diary that has been recorded for many years. The distance from the first edition with twelve works to a thick volume with four hundred poems took a lifetime. A life in which Whitman dreamed of equality and brotherhood, the absence of prejudice separating people, their unity with nature.
