Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Whitman and Traubel Does the spirit Walt Whitman live in any of the writers to-day? Has he a successor? Is that successor his biographer and literary executor, Horace Traubel? This question is being answered in the affirmative by a rapidly growing number of persons. And those who have become interested in Traubel feel quite as strong an admiration for his work as they do for that of Whitman. Let me quote a typical opinion, that of Eugene V. Debs: Horace Traubel has the distinctest personality of any man of letters now before the American people. He can be likened to no other author or writer, living or dead. Although a loyal disciple and devotee of Walt Whitman, from whom he, undoubtedly caught his earliest and deepest inspiration, he goes far beyond his revered master. He not only brings the old Prophet of Democracy up to date but he traverses untrodden fields and explores new realms in quest of the truth. Horace Traubel has the clear vision of a prophet, the anal3rtical mind of a philosopher, the daring imagination of a poet, the heroic soul of a martyr, and the unpolluted heart of a child.
