BLExplores Whitman's homosexuality in relation to his poetry, politics, and life
BLIncludes work by Eve Sedgewick, Michael Moon, and Jonathan Arac
These new essays reject the persistent tendency in Whitman studies to isolate his sexuality from his politics, and his poetry from both. The issue of his sexuality is instead brought into contact with a wide range of issues, from nationalism to race and gender, pointing to the interdisciplinary future of American literary and cultural study, and the growing influence of gay and lesbian studies.
