This research paper: This is a 5 page paper comparing and contrasting 3 of Walt Whitman’s poems. Walt Whitman’s “Song of Myself”, “Drum Taps” and “A Noiseless Patient Spider” analyzed in order of publication show how Whitman uses many of the same techniques within his works, such as rhythm, simple diction, imagery and punctuation to highlight emotions and details within his work in order to better portray the passion and emotions in each piece. In “Song of Myself”, Whitman provides a lengthy argument about the enormity of life, passion, understanding and loving the wholeness of the universe and most importantly those within it. “Drum Taps” begins to tell the effects the Civil War had on Whitman and tells of the excitement Manhattan felt going into war but the undertone of the work provided in the epigram gives the work a grave element. Finally, the shortest of the three “A Noiseless Patient Spider” tells the readers in a much more quiet approach Whitman’s need to see the connection between his soul and other elements which surround him similar to that of a spider launching forth filaments into space in order to grasp hold of something. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
