Over de Auteur
Walt Whitman was an American poet, essayist, and journalist, often called the father of free verse. His work, particularly the collection 'Leaves of Grass,' revolutionized American poetry by breaking away from traditional forms and embracing a more open, free-flowing style. Whitman's writing celebrates the individual, the beauty of nature, and the interconnectedness of all people, which reflects his belief in democracy and equality.
