Walt Whitman
Walt Whitman (1819-1892) was an American poet whose revolutionary collection 'Leaves of Grass' broke every rule of traditional verse to create a new poetry - democratic, physical, cosmic in scope. Self-published and self-promoted, he celebrated the American individual and the human body with a frankness that scandalized and inspired in equal measure.
