Ken Read-Brown First Parish in Hingham (Old Ship Church) Unitarian Universalist May 24, 2015 Readings Isaiah 2:3-5 Many peoples will come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.” The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Come, descendants of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the LORD. “Reconciliation” from Drum-Taps by Walt Whitman Word over all, beautiful as the sky! Beautiful that war, and all its deeds of carnage, must in time be utterly lost; That the hands of the sisters Death and Night, incessantly softly wash again, and ever again, this soil’d world: …For my enemy is dead – a man divine as myself is dead; I look where he lies, white-faced and still, in the coffin – I draw near; I bend down and touch lightly with my lips the white face in the coffin. Sermon In the summer of 1865 a woman named Mary Dunbar Williams of Winchester, Virginia, organized a group of women to give proper burial to Confederate dead whose bodies were found in the countryside, and then to decorate those graves annually.

Welcome to the concluding performance of the fourth Lougheed-Kofoed Festival of the Arts, whose scope embracing all the arts, in a continuation of our campus’ historic Spring Festival of the Arts, is generously supported by the visionary gifts of Kathy Kofoed Lougheed ’54 and her husband Don Lougheed (Hon.) ’54. The featured choral-orchestral work on this evening’s program, Johannes Brahms’ beloved German Requiem, had been among those performed most frequently in the Spring Festival, having been featured on nine separate occasions, and having been conducted by some of the iconic figures in the Festival’s history. Helen Hosmer herself conducted it just two years after the beginning of this venerable series, in 1934; and in 1939 her friend and colleague Nadia Boulanger conducted the work.

  • Drum-Taps and Battle-Pieces
    Reconciliation as Sequel and Supplement: Drum-Taps and Battle-Pieces PETER J. BELLIS University of Alabama at Birmingham Whitman and Melville could have ended their books of Civil War poems with the close of hostilities, but for both writers an additional movement toward reunification and reconciliation is required to give the war shape and meaning: Drum-Taps requires a sequel and Battle-Pieces a supplement. In both cases, however, thematic or conceptual completion brings formal disruption: reconciliation is deferred or displaced into a separate section of the text and marked by an all too visible scar or seam. The break in Whitman’s text marks the point between wartime conflict and postwar reconciliation, a necessary pivot in what he comes to see as a single temporal and psychological process. For Melville, on the other hand, reconciliation is blocked by the politicized struggle of Reconstruction, a discursive shift that leaves the volume not so much temporally incomplete as structurally flawed. Whitman sees reconciliation as a task that poetry can still accomplish, given time; Melville fears that it may lie beyond the reach of discourse altogether. Mickle Street Review 21 | Spring 2016 | 2 hy does Drum-Taps require a sequel, and Battle-Pieces a supplement? Walt Whitman and Herman Melville could simply have ended their books with W the close of Civil War hostilities, but each decides against it. For both of them, something more is needed to give the war shape and meaning: an additional movement toward reunification and reconciliation. But in both cases, thematic or conceptual completion brings formal disruption: reconciliation is deferred or displaced into a separate section of the text and marked by an all too visible scar or seam.

A BRITISH VIEW TO AN AMERICAN WAR: WHITMAN'S "DRUM-TAPS" CLUSTER AND THE EDITORIAL INFLUENCE OF WILLIAM MICHAEL ROSSETTI JULIANNE RAMSEY WHITMAN SCHOLARS HAVE long been acquainted with the sequence of events and social concerns leading up to William Michael Rossetti's 1868 London anthology of poems "selected" from the 1867 edition of Leaves of Grass. 1 However, no investigation has yet been launched to determine whether and in what way the hand of the celebrated British editor-critic may still imprint some portion of the final structure and meaning of Leaves of Grass itself. Rossetti's selection process necessi­ tated regrouping the materials of the highly unstructured 1867 Leaves2 into five new thematic "clusters" of his own configuration, including for the first time a "Drum-Taps" cluster of Civil War poems that predates Whitman's own grouping of the same title within the body of the 1871 Leaves edition.

  • REVERBERATING REFLECTIONS of WHITMAN: a DARK ROMANTIC REVEALED DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the University
    3-iq REVERBERATING REFLECTIONS OF WHITMAN: A DARK ROMANTIC REVEALED DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Lisa Kirkpatrick Lundy, B.A. Denton, Texas August, 1999 Lundy, Lisa A. Kirkpatrick, Reverberating Reflections of Whitman: A Dark Romantic Revealed. Doctor of Philosophy (English), August, 1999, 146 pp. Works cited, 150 entries. Walt Whitman has long been celebrated as a Romantic writer who celebrates the self, reveres Nature, claims unity in all things, and sings praises to humanity. However, some of what Whitman has to say has been overlooked. Whitman often questioned the goodness of humanity. He recognized evil in various shapes. He pondered death and the imperturbability of Nature to human death. He exhibited nightmarish imagery in some of his works and gory violence in others. While Whitman has long been called a celebratory poet, he is nevertheless also in part a writer of the Dark Romantic. Instead of always presenting the universe as an orderly, harmonious system, and perpetuating his vision of the self—one of order, harmony, and complexity of detail—his tendency is toward blackness, toward the "mind-gloom" of a movement that became an evident outgrowth of American Romanticism. Whitman's earlier works are, as Reynolds claims, "scarred with suffering" (53). Because of three periods in Whitman's life, he is in fact a Dark Romantic. As a young school teacher, Whitman suffered the humiliation of low pay, little respect, no privacy, and at some point a tragic crisis that reverberates throughout much of his literature on and about education and authority figures.

Walt Whitman and Frederick Delius, Endlessly Rocking O. Alan Weltzien Abstract Explores the relation between Whitman’s Sea-Drift and the musical compositions of Frederick Delius, arguing that “Out of the Cradle Endlessly Rocking” and Delius’ composition ”’rock’ in exquisite complementarity”; traces the formal and philosophical congruities between the works. W ALTWHITMAN AND FREDERICK DELIUS, ENDLESSLY ROCKING o. ALAN WELTZlEN I SEA-DRIFT, WALT WHITMAN'S ELEVEN-POEM COMPILATION for the 1881 Leaves of Grass, has attracted several English and American composers, most notably Frederick Delius and Ralph Vaughan Williams. In fact, their respective adaptations of Whitman, both from Sea-Drift and else­ where, represent one pinnacle of achievement in setting Whitman to music. In the very years that Vaughan Williams shaped his Sea Sym­ phony (1903-1909), Delius's major Whitman work established his repu­ tation not only in Germany but in his native land and elsewhere. These two Whitman advocates both adapted the closing of "A Passage to In­ dia," "Joy, Shipmate, Joy!" and "A Clear Midnight." For both, though, the Whitman of Sea-Drift figures most centrally in their careers and oeuvres. Clearly Whitman provided a freshening breeze for many En­ glish composers by the 1890s, but both Delius and Vaughan Williams felt a strong and lifelong personal identification with the poet.
