I have an ignment that i really need help with. I need to find a connection between these Emerson quotes and whitman ideas....understand?
"This highest minds of the world have never ceased to explore the double meaning...of every sensuous fact."
"The poet...is representative of man, in virtue of being the largest power to recieve and to impart."
"small and mean things serve as well as great symbols."
workmen, work, and tools, words and things, birth and death, all are emblems."
"America is a poem in our eyes; its ample geography dazzles the imagination."
"Nothing walks, or creeps, or grows, or exists, which must not in turn arise and walk before him (the poet) as exponent of his meaning."
you dont have to comment on all of them but if you could just give me some insite on at least one...it would help a tremendous load...thank you...desperate student!
