Walt Whitman was influenced by Transcendentalist ideas, particularly the belief in the interconnectedness of all living beings and the importance of individual experience. He was not a formal member of the Transcendentalist movement, but his poetry and writing reflect their themes of nature, self-reliance, and spiritual exploration.
