The role of Fathers has changed much over the course of centuries. Men are now better suited to a role of co-parent in this modern age rather than the stilted, slightly aloof figure of times past. Being a Father is, of course, both a blessing and a burden.

Walt Whitman : ce poète et humaniste fut à l'origine des plus grandes pages de poésie des temps modernes. Elles eurent pour créateur un solitaire américain poussé comme un gratte-ciel dans un désert inculte de maisons à bas étages. Whitman est considéré comme un des deux piliers de la poésie américaine du XIXe siècle, avec Emily Dickinson. Sa voix résolument américaine suscite des émotions vives grâce au vers libre et à la force hypnotique de la répétition ; il clame sensualité et liberté dans une langue populaire, et chaque poème est une leçon de vie, un incontournable de la poésie telle qu'on ne l'apprend pas à l'école.

Poetry is often cited as our greatest use of words. The English language has well over a million of them and poets down the ages seem, at times, to make use of every single one.

Poems can evoke within us an individual response that takes us by surprise; that opens our ears and eyes to very personal feelings.

This book compiles both the first (1855) and final (1892) versions of Walt Whitman's masterpiece Song of Myself in one volume, making it unique and valuable for students of American literature.

Perhaps the first great and truly "American" poet, Walt Whitman's writing reflected the idealism and turbulence of the mid-19th century. His poetry broke new stylistic ground with its unconventional meter and rhyme schemes, yet celebrated democratic values, the beauty of nature, and the complex variety and vitality of American life.

Walt Whitman’s work influenced many later poetic voices, and no work more so than this epic American poem, 'Leaves of Grass', which he spent his entire life writing and constantly revising until his death. The work heralded a new dynamic relationship in poetry, with its candid and sensual interpretation of his observations and thoughts on the human spirit and all aspects of existence at a time when poetic tradition employed symbolism or allegory.
