外国文学（下）第四周 惠特曼 麦尔维尔 许诺发出给加利福尼亚, 或者内地的田园般的大草原,而后是美丽的普盖特和 俄勒冈; 在东部逗留一会儿,我很快会走向你,停在那里, 　　教导充沛的美国之爱, 因为我很清楚我和充沛的爱属于你,在内地, 　　又沿着西岸的海洋; 因为这些州朝向内陆又濒临西岸,而我也将一样 ——《对加利福尼亚的许诺》 霍桑《红字》 海丝特·白兰 牧师丁梅斯代尔 齐灵渥斯 珠儿 背叛、忏悔、救赎 * In 1855 Whitman issued the first of many editions of Leaves of Grass. Because he immodestly praised the human body and glorified the senses, Whitman was forced to publish the book at his own expense, setting some of the type himself.

I celebrate myself, and sing myself, And what I assume you shall assume, For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you. I loafe and invite my soul, I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass. ? 我赞美我自己，歌唱我自己， 我承担的你也将承担， 因为属于我的每一个原子也同样属于你。 我闲步，还邀请了我的灵魂， 我俯身悠然观察着一片夏日的草叶。 Song of Myself 自我之歌（1） My tongue, every atom of my blood, form‘d from this soil, this air, Born here of parents born here from parents the same, and their parents the same, I, now thirty-seven years old in perfect health begin, Hoping to cease not till death.
