ABOUT THIS BOOK
In this first comprehensive study in English of Walt Whitman's reception in the German-speaking countries, Walter Grünzweig posits a very broadly based notion of culture, embodying a wide variety of elements such as high literature, politics, youth movements, sexuality, and other subcultures.
REVIEWS
“This is the most illuminating study ever written about how an American writer has been absorbed into another culture. This book is a major achievement not only in Whitman studies but in the emerging field of intercultural textuality.”—Ed Folsom
