3. By addressing an invisible, hypothesized listener or engaging in an imagined dialogue, Vendler believes, poets like Herbert work out models that point us toward "better forms of intimacy in the actual world." Whitman‘s desire for greater intimacy included the sexual form, Vendler notes: "Among the causes of Whitman‘s invention of a comrade–in–futurity, one was ... [his] love–disappointments in life. ... But his messianic tendencies," she goes on to suggest, "also played a part in drawing his eyes toward the future, as did his belief in scientific and evolutionary progress." Vendler‘s reading of Whitman helps us appreciate the unique way he used his intensely personal lyric voice to envision large–scale ethical and social ideals.
