Walt whitman biography video kasi

Fifteen biographies of Whitman have been published since 1883, not counting biographical studies such as John Addington Symonds's Walt Whitman: A Study (1893), Edward Carpenter's Days with Walt Whitman (1906), Basil De Selincourt's Walt Whitman: A Critical Study (1914), Newton Arvin's Whitman (1938), or Frederick Schyberg's Walt Whitman (1951).

Of these, at least two are adolescent or purely romantic biographies, Cameron Rogers's The Magnificent Idler: The Story of Walt Whitman (1926) and Frances Winwar's American Giant: Walt Whitman and His Times (1941). There are also "pre-biographies" or hagiographies written by close associates of the poet.

The naturalist John Burroughs's Walt Whitman as Poet and Person (1867) was co-written by Whitman to promote the fourth edition of Leaves of Grass; William Douglas O'Connor's The Good Gray Poet, a forty-six-page pamphlet published in 1866, was done by an inspired enthusiast and (along with Burroughs) one of the poet's closest friends.
