Description: Poems, as William Carlos Williams once said, are machines made out of words, and in this advanced poetry workshop we will work on making the most gorgeous, gripping, and efficient machines possible. To that end, we will read both one another's poems and poems by established authors, in either case paying attention to the ways in which the authors harness aspects of their medium, the English language: syntax, diction, rhythm. The poems we write may take any shape, any form, but we will work towards understanding why a particular poem must take the shape it has; we will pay attention not so much to what the poems say as to how they say it. In addition, this course will explore and attend to process, which may include questions of inspiration, generation, and revision. and Requirements: weekly writing and reading assignments, revisions of assignments, devoted participation in class discussions. Permission of instructor is required. Students are to submit 3-5 typed poems by email to the instructor.
Offered: Fall Spring Summer
