Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882) remains one of the most renowned poets in American literary history.

His poetic prowess was evident early on, and he nurtured his talents through education—first at Bowdoin College and later at Harvard, where he taught as a professor of modern languages. Longfellow's literary style is characterized by his lyrical approach, universal themes, and a rhythm that echoed the classical traditions yet felt distinctly American.
