Widely considered the greatest American poet, Walt Whitman was initially deemed by the literary establishment an egomaniac, a charlatan, and a poet whose verse lacked any sense of rhyme or meter. James Thomson’s engaging study of the author of Leaves of Grass is a vigorous defense of the poet, whom he admired and held in the same high regard as Shelley.

A propos de l’auteur
James Thomson (1834–1882) was a poet, best remembered for his work “The City of Dreadful Night.” A pessimist, he spent much of his life lonely, poor, and without much sleep. In addition to poetry, he also wrote prose, including literary criticism. His essay Walt Whitman, the Man and the Poet, was part of a series of essays he wrote for the National Reformer and Cope’s Tobacco Plant.
