Title: INTRODUCTION TO POETRY WRITING

Section: 02

Semester: Fall - 2020

Credits: 3

Description:
Poetry is the search for new language. When we write poems, we are trying to make our words electric, to energize our diction, to indulge in mystery.

We will read and study published poems to inspire our own work. We will think about diction, metaphor, line and voice. We will study prosody (the music of poetry!). Students can expect lots of feedback on drafts from peers and from your professor. Every class, we will indulge in the auditory pleasures of the poem. Every class, we will explore the imaginative possibilities of the word.
