Om forfatteren
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882) remains one of the most beloved figures in American poetry. His work is known for its lyricism, musicality, and romantic storytelling. Born in Portland, Maine, Longfellow cultivated an interest in languages and literature at a young age. Graduating from Bowdoin College, he went on to become a professor at both his alma mater and later at Harvard. Longfellow's poetry often explores themes of love and loss, the American landscape, and the human condition. Memorable works such as 'The Song of Hiawatha' and 'Evangeline' have solidified his place as an integral part of America's literary heritage. His 'Paul Revere's Ride' remains a staple of cultural lexicon, while 'The Courtship of Miles Standish' delves into the nation's colonial history. These narrative poems showcase Longfellow's mastery in blending folklore with a rich vernacular style. In 'The Psalm of Life' and 'The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls', Longfellow contemplates life's transience and the pursuit of purpose. His literary accomplishments were recognized even in his lifetime, making him one of the few American poets to gain international fame. Longfellow was also part of the Fireside Poets—a group known for their new American voice and easy-to-read poetry. His influence on American poetry is ever-present, embodying an era where poetry served to comfort, educate, and connect a diverse and growing nation.
