Description
The purpose of this class will be to produce a mobile, surprising, unfinished language in which to treat poetry. Writing poems will be a part of this task, but only a part. There will also be a modest amount of critical writing, short written commentaries on other students' work, a review of a poetry reading, and a semi-self-directed study of prosody; these efforts will all be gathered in a final portfolio of work to be handed in at semester's end. Class participation will include memorization and recitation of other writer's poems and discussion of material brought in by the instructor.
