The poetry collection showcases the evolution of Walt Whitman's work, reflecting his lifelong dedication to revising and expanding his vision. Initially published in 1855 with just twelve poems, it grew to encompass over 400 pieces by the final edition. The varying number of editions—six or nine—highlights the depth and breadth of his exploration of themes such as nature, humanity, and individuality across four decades of literary development.
