Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
(1807 -1882)
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is an outstanding American poet and humanist of the 19th century. He was born in Portland in the family of a rich lawyer. The poets ancestors had come to America in 1620 on the Mayflower and built the first village in New England. The family traditions helped the poet to understand the history of his country.
When Longfellow was 19 years old, his father sent him to Europe. The young man lived in France, Italy, Spain and Germany, where he studied foreign languages and literature. He was preparing to be a college professor of foreign languages.
When Longfellow returned from Europe, he became a teacher at the college from which he had graduated. Longfellow delivered lectures on literature and wrote poems and articles. He translated the works of European poets into English.
