Abstract
Examines the significance of the for Whitman, seeking to locate the roots of Whitman's idyllic poetic space in the real space of the rural by examining nineteenth-century cemetery literature and by analyzing how rural cemeteries--particularly Brooklyn's Mount Auburn and Green-wood cemeteries--were covered in periodicals of the era, including in Whitman's own journalism; argues that Whitman made innovative use of the rural in his poetry.
