Specificatii
As featured in AMC's Breaking Bad, given by Gale Boetticher to
Walter White and discovered by Hank Schrader. I celebrate myself,
And what I assume you shall assume, For every atom belonging to me
as good belongs to you. I loafe and invite my soul, I lean and
loafe at my ease....observing a spear of summer grass. So begins
Leaves of Grass, the first great American poem and indeed, to this
day, the greatest and most essentially American poem in all our
national literature. The publication of Leaves of Grass in July
1855 was a landmark event in literary history. Ralph Waldo Emerson
judged the book the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom
America has yet contributed. Nothing like the volume had ever
appeared before. Everything about it--the unusual jacket and title
page, the exuberant preface, the twelve free-flowing, untitled
poems embracing every realm of experience--was new. The 1855
edition broke new ground in its relaxed style, which prefigured
free verse; in its sexual candor; in its images of racial bonding
and democratic togetherness; and in the intensity of its
affirmation of the sanctity of the physical world. This Anniversary
Edition captures the typeface, design and layout of the original
edition supervised by Whitman himself. Today's readers get a sense
of the ur-text of Leaves of Grass, the first version of this
historic volume, before Whitman made many revisions of both format
and style. The volume also boasts an afterword by Whitman authority
David Reynolds, in which he discusses the 1855 edition in its
social and cultural contexts: its background, its reception, and
its contributions to literary history. There is also an appendix
containing the early responses to the volume, including Emerson's
letter, Whitman's three self-reviews, and the twenty other known
reviews published in various newspapers and magazines. This special
volume will be a must-have keepsake for fans of Whitman and lovers
of American poetry.
