Hiawatha is a classic narrative poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, first published in 1855. The poem recounts the fictional adventures of Hiawatha, an Ojibwe Native American, and explores themes of nature, peace, and the interconnectedness of all living things.
Inspired by Native American oral traditions and Finnish epic poetry, Longfellow created a uniquely American epic that captivated readers with its lyrical verse and vivid imagery. Though not a literal historical account, Hiawatha offers a romanticized vision of Native American life and spirituality that continues to resonate today.
This edition revives the timeless tale of Hiawatha for a new generation, inviting readers to reflect on the relationship between humanity and the natural world.
