La poésie américaine, à travers Walt Whitman
Exposé - Anglais - 5 pages - Format Microsoft Word
These two poems, “Hush’d Be the Camps To-day” and “Oh Captain! My Captain!”, were written by Walt Whitman in 1865 after the death of then President Abraham Lincoln. “Hush’d Be the Camps To-day” was published in Drum-Taps, and “Oh Captain! My Captain!” in The Sequel to Drum-Taps. Both poems would be added in Leaves of Grass in 1867.
We shall first have a look at the style of the two poems to see how Whitman deals with President Lincoln’s death before comparing the two and explaining what induced him to write these poems.
