Sobre este artículo
Louisiana State University Press, 1993. Book. As New. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Hardcover, teal cloth lettered in silver on spine, in publisher's dust-jacket. 327 pages. Bibliography and Index. Illustrated with 16 halftones from photographs and paintings. First edition, stated first printing with full number line. Dougherty seizes on Whitman's concept of the "mystery of the eye-sight" to show his poems as rooted in the everyday experiences of the citizen of his day. As the author notes, this did not hold true for all the poet's poems, as his nationalistic and patriotic verse often relied on formulaic images. However, it is in poems such as "Crossing Brooklyn Ferry" Dougherty argues Whitman is the most successful in communicating with the common man. No previous ownership marks. A pristine, fresh and unmarked copy. As new in an as new dust-jacket. .
