Alexander Schmid Podcast

In this episode of Night School, Mr. Wes Schantz and I consider Part 33 of Whitman's "Song of Myself". We specifically consider (a) the purpose of the length of the part and its epic correlates, (b) the biblical and naturalistic and mundane imagery in the part, and (c) the purpose of the poet and the articulation of shared human experience and its relation to communion/digestion imagery. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/support
