内容説明

Absorbing as biography, invaluable as reference, this latest volume in the distinguished series that began publication in 1906 continues Traubel s minute, detailed, day-by-day account of America s greatest poet. William White, editor of the "Walt Whitman Review "and coeditor of "The Collected Writings of Walt Whitman, "assumed the editorial chores when Gertrude Traubel was unable to continue the project.Traubel wrote of the work that had absorbed so much of her life: Vitality, contemporaneitythese Whitman characteristicsbring him to you not just an old man reliving a memorable career, butlike most seerslooking at events before him with flashes of prophetic insight. Volume 6" "presents the period from September 15, 1889, to July 6, " "1890, with virtual transcripts of the conversations of Whitman with Traubel. Whitman s thoughts and opinions, reminiscences, his goings and comings, letters he received and wrote, and hundreds of other matters as well as important details of his life in his home on Mickle Street in Camden. This series is indispensable for an understanding of and insight into the life and opinions of Walt Whitman. Horace Traubel fulfilled Whitman s charge to speak for me when I am dead, in a manner without precedent."

内容説明

This is the seventh volume of the daily record, over the last four years of Walt Whitman's life, of his conversations with his young friend and literary executor Horace Traubel. Traubel managed Whitman's literary and personal affairs and assisted him in the preparation for publication of the final (Deathbed) edition of Leaves of Grass. Each evening he wrote down a brief description of how Whitman appeared to him that day and then recorded all the snatches of conversation that he remembered. The sheer consistency of Traubel's effort is perhaps without precedent in all of literature. His narrative is not only a record of Whitman's anecdotes and conversation on a wide variety of topics but also the opportunity to witness, as Traubel witnessed, a personal life. These entries offer a picture of Walt Whitman--with all his keen insights, day-to-day labors, and physical troubles--that is more complete and revealing than any of the numerous studies written on the man.
