Autor

John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) was an influential American poet and abolitionist. Born in Massachusetts, Whittier's Quaker upbringing instilled in him a strong sense of social justice and a commitment to the abolition of slavery. He became a prominent voice in the fight against slavery, using his poetry to convey his anti-slavery sentiments and advocate for the rights of the oppressed. Whittier's poetry often blended moral conviction, vivid descriptions of nature, and a deep sense of spirituality. His work reflected his belief in the power of the individual to effect positive change in society. In "Pennsylvania Pilgrim, and Other Poems," Whittier presents a collection of poems that range from his passionate abolitionist verses to his contemplative reflections on nature and the human experience. Whittier's writing was characterized by its simplicity, sincerity, and accessibility. He was able to evoke strong emotions and convey his ideas effectively through the power of his words.¿
