Abstract
This course is intended to give students an opportunity to further refine & define creative writing
ideas & skills learned in either an introductory poetry class or an introductory fiction class.
Beginning in the crucial current, we will then “go back” to employ, study, & question the more
traditional forms of poetry. Students will choose a topic & then, using devices of revision and reinvention,
students will learn to work with & against not only inherited forms but forms of their own
so that they can begin to make more potent choices according to the needs of subject & context. In
addition to studying & discussing as much as possible from the required texts, students will write.
The majority of writing will generate from reading & from exercises & techniques plied in class &
further honed in weekly assignments. This class also serves as an introduction to poetics in
preparation for more advanced, theoretical work at the senior level.
