Democratic Vistas is a collection of essays written by Walt Whitman, one of America's most celebrated poets. Originally published in 1871, the book explores the role of democracy in American society and culture. Whitman argues that democracy is not just a political system, but a way of life that encompasses all aspects of society, including art, literature, and religion. He also discusses the challenges facing democracy in America, such as the rise of materialism and the erosion of individual freedoms. Throughout the book, Whitman emphasizes the importance of individualism and the need for citizens to actively participate in the democratic process. Democratic Vistas is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of American democracy that remains relevant today.Whitman, The Poet And The Potential Seer, Comprehended The Conflicting Purposes Of His Age.
