Industry Reviews
"The Strange Sad War Revolving: Walt Whitman, Reconstruction, And The Emergence Of Black Citizenship" seeks to point the way for a needed recovery of Whitman's 1865-1876 publications by considering them in the context of the legislative discourse on black emancipation and its stormy aftermath. While Whitman's Union ideology is virtually uncontested, the perceived absence of attention to race relations in his postwar texts has recently become a source of curiosity and a target of criticism. Whitman had always demanded "Radical Democracy" as his central model for social solidarity. However, after the Civil War, the public presence of blacks had forced Congress to reckon publicly with the issue of black civil rights in the face of racism and sectionalism. By welcoming ex-slaves as well as ex-Rebel states into the Union, Whitman's Reconstruction texts enlisted his representations in the federalizing rhetoric of civil rights protection that would lapse for almost a century before being taken up again in the Second Reconstruction of the 1950s and 1960s. "The Strange Sad War Revolving" is an important and constructive contribution to Whitman studies.
