"First published to wide critical acclaim in 1981, this revised and expanded monumental anthology charts the ongoing American and international response to the legacy of the seminal poet Walt Whitman (1819-1892). Beginning with Ralph Waldo Emerson's famous 1855 letter, "I greet you at the beginning of a great career ...," this new edition contains responses from Henry David Thoreau, Ezra Pound, D.H. Lawrence, Pablo Neruda, Allen Ginsberg, June Jordan, Robert Duncan, Meridel Le Sueur, among others, plus an engaging introduction by Ed Folsom, "Talking Back to Walt Whitman."" "There are nearly 100 contributions, interspersed with a gallery of photographs of Whitman, and capped by an exhaustive bibliography of poems and essays in response to Whitman."--Jacket.
