Through reference to his entire oeuvre, his published literary criticism, and his private conversations, letters and manuscripts, it seeks to understand the extent to which Whitman experienced the anxiety of influence as he sought to establish himself as America's poet-prophet or bard (and the extent to which he sought to conceal such influence). 606 $aInfluence (Literary, artistic, etc.) 606 $aEnglish$2HILCC 606 $aLanguages & Literatures$2HILCC 606 $aAmerican Literature$2HILCC 615 0$aInfluence (Literary, artistic, etc.) 615 7$aEnglish 615 7$aLanguages & Literatures 615 7$aAmerican Literature 676 $a811/.3 700 $aSchmidgall$b Gary$01243162 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154323303321 996 $aContaining multitudes : Walt Whitman and the British literary tradition$92883561 997 $aUNINA
