351:241 Introduction to Poetry |
01 TTH8 CAC 70169 KUSCH MU-115
We will explore everything that makes a poem a poem: the ways of metaphor, the activity of “voice,” the trance-like effect of meter and rhythm, the resonance of individual words, the juxtaposition of images, the contribution of fixed and open forms, and the drama of the line and the line-break. We will also explore some of the subversive power of poems: their very human origins, their interior conflicts and tensions, and their silences. Poems by Shakespeare, John Donne, Robert Browning, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Gerard Hopkins, Robert Frost, Langston Hughes, Alice Walker, Gwendolyn Brooks, Marianne Moore, Dylan Thomas, William Carlos Williams, Sylvia Plath, and many more
