In 1855, Walt Whitman released the first edition of "Leaves of Grass," a groundbreaking collection of 12 poems. Influenced by Transcendentalism, this work features an innovative free-verse style and bold subject matter that exalts nature, celebrates the human body, and praises the senses and sexual love. Upon its publication, it faced condemnation for immorality, yet it has since emerged as a classic of American poetry, challenging conventional ideas of beauty and originality. This edition includes some of the most significant poems of modern times.
