Activity 4: Inspirations (Study)

Longfellow House Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site

Transcript

This study is where Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote some of his most famous works. Stories like Paul Revere’s Ride, The Song of Hiawatha, and Evangeline. He filled this space with objects that inspired his creativity. Things like books, statues of famous European writers like Shakespeare, Goethe, and Dante Alighieri, pictures of his friends, and big comfy chairs so he could sit by the fire.

If you were going to fill your own room with objects that inspire your creativity, what would five of those objects be?
