"'I, chanter of Adamic songs,
Through the new garden the West,
the great cities calling.' -Whitman
It is, in fact, in the poems gathered under the title Children of Adam
(1860) that we have the most explicit evidence of his ambition to
reach behind tradition to find and assert nature untroubled by art, to
re-establish the natural unfallen man in the living hour. (Lewis).
Don't know if this ads anything to our discussion here.
As far as freedom I think of that old aphorism "Freedom isn't Free." I would like someone to take a stab at defining freedom.
