Walt Whitman

    31. Mai 1819 – 26. März 1892

    Walter Whitman, ein amerikanischer Dichter und Essayist, wurde zu einer zentralen Figur der amerikanischen Literatur. Sein Werk, das sich zwischen Transzendentalismus und Realismus bewegt, zelebriert die Menschheit in freiem, weitem Vers und brachte ihm den Titel „Vater des freien Verses“ ein. Whitmans Erfahrungen als Journalist, Schreiber und Krankenpfleger im Bürgerkrieg prägten sein Schreiben, das von Dichtern für seine einzigartige und kraftvolle Stimme gelobt wurde. Sein Meisterwerk gilt als Hymne an die Menschheit und sein Einfluss ist bis heute spürbar.

      Ein berührendes, erregendes Buch, das uns spüren lässt, was es heißt, lebendig zu sein »Specimen Days«, »Besondere Tage« nannte Walt Whitman seine Sammlung autobiographischer Texte. Ihr Herzstück sind seine Erlebnisse während des Amerikanischen Bürgerkriegs. Drei Jahre lang zieht Whitman durch die Lazarette Washingtons, lauscht den Erzählungen der Verwundeten, ihren Hoffnungen und Ängsten, und gibt seelischen Zuspruch – ein erschütterndes Zeugnis jener Seite des Krieges, die nicht in die Geschichtsbücher Eingang findet. Dazu gesellen sich Erinnerungen an die Kindheit und Naturbeschreibungen. Der Duft von Heu, das sanfte Gebrumm der Hummeln, die Luftsprünge der Schwalben, die letzten Strahlen der untergehenden Sonne über dem Teich: eine Quelle des Friedens und des Glücks, worin die menschliche Existenz eingebettet erscheint. Mit einem Essay von Rainer Wieland.
