Happy New Year from Cohenlab!
The textual scholarship journal Textual Cultures has been generous to Whitman studies lately.
Of interest in the latest issue are, first, a review by Matt Cohen of Zachary Turpin and Matt Miller’s edition of Whitman manuscripts Every Hour, Every Atom: A Collection of Walt Whitman’s Early Notebooks and Fragments (Textual Cultures 14.2 [2021]: 254–58).
Second, there’s an account by Cohen and Nicole Gray of the development and theoretical significance of the Whitman Archive‘s award-winning 1855 Leaves of Grass Variorum, titled “Printers of the Kosmos: Modeling Variation in the 1855 Leaves of Grass” (Textual Cultures 14.2 [2021]: 134–54).
