Introducción del libro

Leaves of Grass

Leaves of Grass expands poetry into a bold first-person song of the body, the crowd, nature, labor, and democratic imagination. Whitman’s work changed the possibilities of English-language poetry.

Leaves of Grass

Walt Whitman

Come, said my soul,

Such verses for my Body let us write, (for we are one,)

That should I after return,

Or, long, long hence, in other spheres,

There to some group of mates the chants resuming,

(Tallying Earth’s soil, trees, winds, tumultuous waves,)

Ever with pleas’d smile I may keep on,

Ever and ever yet the verses owning--as, first, I here and now

Signing for Soul and Body, set to them my name,

Walt Whitman

BOOK I. INSCRIPTIONS

Capítulo de vista previaOne’s-Self I SingVista previa

One’s-self I sing, a simple separate person,

Yet utter the word Democratic, the word En-Masse.

Of physiology from top to toe I sing,

Not physiognomy alone nor brain alone is worthy for the Muse, I say

the Form complete is worthier far,

The Female equally with the Male I sing.

Of Life immense in passion, pulse, and power,

Cheerful, for freest action form’d under the laws divine,

The Modern Man I sing.
