This Oxford World’s Classics edition of Leaves of Grass, edited by Jerome Loving, presents Walt Whitman’s groundbreaking poetry in its final authorized form (1891–1892), along with the original Preface from the 1855 edition and Ralph Waldo Emerson’s famous letter welcoming Whitman’s emergence as a poet. With its bold free-verse style and celebration of individuality, democracy, and the natural world, Leaves of Grass remains a defining work of American literature. The edition includes a scholarly introduction, detailed notes, and contextual material, offering readers a rich and accessible entry point into Whitman’s visionary world.
