| Zusammenfassung: | Shortly after the third edition ofLeaves of Grasswas published, in 1860, Walt Whitman seemed to drop off the literary map, not to emerge again until his brother George was wounded at Fredericksburg two and a half years later. Past critics have tended to read this silence as evidence of Whitman's indifference to the Civil War during its critical early months. In this penetrating, original, and beautifully written book, Ted Genoways reconstructs those forgotten years--locating Whitman directly through unpublished letters and never-before-seen manuscripts, as well as mapping his associations through rare period newspapers and magazines in which he published. Genoways's account fills a major gap in Whitman's biography and debunks the myth that Whitman was unaffected by the country's march to war. Instead,Walt Whitman and the Civil Warreveals the poet's active participation in the early Civil War period and elucidates his shock at the horrors of war months before his legendary journey to Fredericksburg, correcting in part the poet's famous assertion that the "real war will never get in the books. |

hortly
after the third edition of Leaves of
Grass was published in
i860,
Walt Whitman
seemed to drop off the literary map, not to
emerge again until his brother George was
wounded at
Fredericksburg,
two and a half
years later. Past critics have tended to read
this silence as evidence of Whitman s indiffer¬
ence to the Civil War during its critical early
months. In this penetrating, original, and
beautifully written book, Ted Genoways re¬
constructs those forgotten years
—
locating
Whitman directly through unpublished letters
and never-before-seen manuscripts, as well as
mapping his associations through rare period
newspapers and magazines in which he pub¬
lished. Genoways s account fills a major gap in
Whitman s biography and debunks the myth
that Whitman was unaffected by the country s
march to war. Instead, Walt Whitman and the
Civil War reveals the poet s active participation
in the early Civil War period and elucidates his
shock at the horrors of war months before his
legendary journey to
Fredericksburg,
correct¬
ing in part the poet s famous assertion that the
real war will never get in the books.
