Rafael Bernabe delves into the intricate connections between Walt Whitman's poetry and the voices of three prominent Caribbean intellectuals: José Martí, C.L.R. James, and Pedro Mir. Through a thoughtful examination of their works, Bernabe reveals how these figures engaged with Whitman's themes of democracy, identity, and humanity, creating a rich dialogue that transcends geographical boundaries.
By weaving together literary analysis and historical context, the narrative highlights the ways in which these Caribbean writers responded to and reinterpreted Whitman's vision in their own cultural landscapes. This exploration not only illuminates the influences of Whitman on Caribbean thought but also showcases the enduring power of poetry as a means of expressing social and political aspirations.
