Title: INTRODUCTION TO POETRY WRITING

Section: 01

Semester: Fall - 2018

Description:
Poetry, from Homer to Young Thug, has been about using syllables and words as magic spells or drugs. OK, it's more complicated than that. But in this course, we will "play around with syllables" (as W. H. Auden had it) as we study the craft of writing poetry in a workshop environment. Through writing exercises and readings drawn from a variety of aesthetic traditions, students will learn basic principles of prosody and composition, fundamentals of form and construction.
