Condition: FINE. First printing, a trade paperback. A book which "brings together the correspondence between Walt Whitman and the numerous soldiers he met and attended as a volunteer male nurse during the Civil War. He details the environment of the encampments and the hospitals, the many situations in wartime which encouraged homosexual friendships among the soldiers, and the particular attraction that Whitman felt of the soldiers and patients he met. . . Shively includes representative letters from fifty soldiers and lovers, and they form a dramatic portrait of Whitman as caregiver, as confidant, and as lover. . . but Shively weakens his book by taking a side journey conjecturing the sexual orientation of both John Wilkes Booth and Abraham Lincoln."

BOOK PAPERBACK. Editions Grasset à Paris, Collection "Les Cahiers rouges",2009, Grand in 12 (19 x 12 cm), 595 pages. Couverture souple illustrée. +++++++ Edition moderne de la traduction française du recueil de poèmes "Leaves of grass" de Walt Whitman (1819-1892). La plus grande poésie des temps modernes, égale à celles d'Homère, Shakespeare et Dante, sonne dans ce recueil. Elles eurent pour créateur un solitaire américain poussé comme un gratte-ciel dans un désert inculte de maisons à bas étages. En 1855, Walt Whitman, de Brooklyn et de Manhattan, fit claquer ses vers comme des drapeaux de joie pour célébrer l'homme et l'apologie de la sensualité dans un style remarquable très différent de la poésie de cette époque. Il n'existe pas d'édition définitive des Feuilles d'herbe. La première édition fut publiée le 4 juillet 1855 à Brooklyn (New York) et d'autres éditions remaniées suivirent jusqu'en 1891-1892 dite édition du lit de mort (Death-Bed Edition) car Whitman n'eut de cesse d'augmenter, d'amender et parfois de réviser sans appel cette uvre. En 1882, Whitman fut confronté à l'éventualité d'un procès contre les « Leaves of Grass » pour atteinte aux bonnes murs (de la même manière que « Les Fleurs du mal », « Madame Bovary » ou bien encore le roman « Ulysse » de James Joyce. Par une certaine ironie du sort, la publicité que provoqua la plainte contre « Leaves of Grass » en accrut les ventes Très bon état.
