The class will be held as a tutorial, which means we read, we meet in seminar and you write, but the point of the course is to educate you in recent methods in contemporary poetry, its theories of practice, through reading the work of poets currently publishing and for you to work to improve your writing. Tuesdays will be the day we discuss the work of outside poets, their ideas, and how you respond to them, with class presentations. Thursdays will be an open workshop, so that you can “try” your poems out on an audience. I expect students to lead discussion, and to ask the workshop for a response to their poems. Please don’t hesitate to share your own interests with the class, by bringing in work by writers whose poems you admire. The more each member contributes in different ways to the workshop the more interesting it will be.en-USRhodes College owns the rights to the digital objects in this collection.
