John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Contributing Editor: Elaine Sargent Apthorp Classroom Issues and Strategies Students may be put off by various features of the poetry, such as: the regularity of meter (which can impress the twentieth-century ear as tediousgenerally we don't "hear" ballads well anymore unless they are set to music); conventional phrasing and alliteration; place-names in "Massachusetts to Virginia"; effect of stereotyping from a clumsy effort to render black dialect in "At Port Royal." I think we can take clues from such responses and turn the questions around, asking why, in what context, and for what audience such poetry would be successful. Consider reasons why one might want to give his verses such regular meter, such round and musically comfortable phrasing; consider the message of the verses, the political protest the poet is makingand the mass action he is trying to stimulate through his poetry. This could lead to a discussion of topical poetry, the poetry of political agitation/protest, as a genreand of Whittier's work as a contribution to that tradition. Some activities that can bring this home to the students include (1) having students commit a few stanzas to memory and give a dramatic recitation of them to the class (when one has fallen out of one's chair shouting defiantly, "No fetters on the Bay State! No slave upon our land!" one knows in one's own body why declamatory poetry is composed as it is), and (2) comparing samples of topical poetry and song by other authors (e.g., poetry of the Harlem Renaissance; the evolutions of "John Brown's Body," "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," and "Solidarity Forever"; union ballads ["The Internationale"] and protest songs of the Great Depression [Woody Guthrie's "Deportees," for example], and contemporary popular songs of protest, like Michael Jackson's recording of "Man in the Mirror," Bruce Hornsby's "The Way It Is," etc.).

FRtR Outlines American Literature Democratic Origins and Revolutionary Writers, 1776-1820: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) An Outline of American Literature by Kathryn VanSpanckeren The Romantic Period, 1820-1860: Essayists and Poets: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Index John Greenleaf Whittier, the most active poet of the era, had a background very similar to Walt Whitman's. He was born and raised on a modest Quaker farm in Massachusetts, had little formal education, and worked as a journalist. For decades before it became popular, he was an ardent abolitionist. Whittier is respected for anti-slavery poems such as "Ichabod," and his poetry is sometimes viewed as an early example of regional realism. Whittier's sharp images, simple constructions, and ballad- like tetrameter couplets have the simple earthy texture of Robert Burns. His best work, the long poem "Snow Bound," vividly recreates the poet's deceased family members and friends as he remembers them from childhood, huddled cozily around the blazing hearth during one of New England's blustering snowstorms. This simple, religious, intensely personal poem, coming after the long nightmare of the Civil War, is an elegy for the dead and a healing hymn. It affirms the eternity of the spirit, the timeless power of love in the memory, and the undiminished beauty of nature, despite violent outer political storms. Index

John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) An Anthology of the American Literature - 19th Century (none) An Anthology of the American Literature - 19th Century íà www.äîì9.cjb.net John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) John Greenleaf Whittier was born in Haverhill, Massachusetts, into the family of a farmer. His schooling was intermittent, for he worked on his father's farm. When he was nineteen, his first verses were printed in the local newspaper, edited by William Lloyd Garrison, a leading abolitionist. Through Garrison's help Whittier became a journalist and got editorial positions, through Garrison's influence he devoted his life and work to the anti-slavery movement. Abolitionism - the agitation for the abolition of Negro slavery - was one of the leading political movements of the time. In 1833 Whittier became delegate to an anti-slavery convention in Philadelphia. Later he was among the editors of the anti-slavery papers. The National Era, in which Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin made its first appearance, was one of such papers. Poet of freedom, Whittier was touring the country making anti-slavery speeches. The struggle gave him a subject for his heart and poetry. The Hunters of Men (1835) is perhaps one of the most expressive of his anti-slavery poems. Whittier's poems, first published in various papers, were collected and published as books, Poems Written During the Progress of the Abolition Question (1838), Voices of Freedom (1846), and In War Time and Other Poems (1864).

Life and Times Literature The Custom House Sketch Faith and Religion ... Paternal John Greenleaf Whittier ( From Legends of New England (1831) The Indian's Tale NOTE. — It was generally believed, by the first settlers of New-England, that a mortal pestilence had, a short time previous to their arrival, in a great measure depopulated some of the finest portions of the country on the seaboard. The Indians themselves corroborated this opinion, and gave the English a terrific description of the ravages of the unseen Destroyer. THE War-God did not wake to strife, The strong men of our forest-land, No red hand grasped the battle-knife At Areouski's high command:— We held no war-dance by the dim And red light of the creeping flame; Nor warrior-yell, nor battle-hymn Upon the midnight breezes came. There was no portent in the sky, No shadow on the round, bright sun, With light and mirth and melody, The long, fair summer days came on; We were a happy people then, Rejoicing in our hunter-mood; No foot-prints of the pale-faced men Had marred our forest-solitude.
