Summary "The Letters of Anne Gilchrist and Walt Whitman" by Anne Gilchrist and Walt Whitman is a historical collection of personal correspondence written in the late 19th century. This work reveals the deep, intellectual friendship and mutual admiration between the poet Walt Whitman and the literary critic Anne Gilchrist. The letters chronicle their exchanges filled with heartfelt insights, reflections on poetry, and personal sentiments, showcasing their philosophical and artistic dialogues. The opening of this collection offers a glimpse into the deep admiration Anne Gilchrist held for Walt Whitman after reading his poetry, which she describes as a transformative experience. In her letter to William Michael Rossetti, she articulates the profound emotional and spiritual impact of Whitman's work on her life, expressing her desire to fully embrace and understand the poet's vision. The text emphasizes the significance of Whitman in her intellectual journey and sets the stage for the letters that follow, which will illustrate the evolving relationship between the two literary figures and their shared thoughts on art, humanity, and existence.
