The听Walt Whitman Archive听endeavors to make Whitman's vast work freely and conveniently accessible to scholars, students, and general readers. Whitman, America's most influential poet and a writer of global renown, is the most challenging of all American authors in terms of the textual difficulties his work presents. His major life work,听Leaves of Grass, went through six very different editions, each of which was issued in a number of formats, creating a book that is probably best studied as numerous distinct creations rather than as a single revised work. His many other writings鈥攙aried and significant鈥攊nclude fiction, notebooks, manuscript fragments, prose essays, letters, marginalia, and voluminous journalistic articles. Drawing on the resources of libraries and collections from around the world, the听Whitman Archive听is the most comprehensive record of works by and about Whitman鈥攁nd continues to grow.听The NHPRC support went to document Whitman鈥檚 correspondence.
