Whitman channels Emerson
“I was simmering, simmering, simmering. Emerson brought me to a boil.”
--Walt Whitman (1819-1892)
Writer Jack London thought you could not wait for it. You needed, he thought, to go out and hunt inspiration with a club. Walt Whitman, however, was luckier. He was a relatively young man when Ralph Waldo Emerson was thinking and writing. Emerson set off the young printer and hack writer, hurling him into an exuberant and celebratory realm, where no one American had ever been.
