Poetry: Reading It and Writing It!
3 MONTH COURSE
- November: 4th, 11th, 18th, 25th
- December: 2nd, 9th
10.30-12
In this course, we will read poets of the twentieth century, including the modernist poet T.S. Eliot (The Waste Land , 1922) and move towards some important poets of the mid-century, the period of Ted Hughes, Philip Larkin, and Sylvia Plath.
MORE INFORMATION
Participants will be given the contents of each session in advance, so you will have time to prepare; and there will be suggestions for extension reading for those who wish to build on what we have read together. Texts of shorter poems will be provided but editions will also be recommended so you can bring your own copies if you wish. Longer poems will be set as homework to give us time to discuss them in class.
We are all aiming to be better readers and better writers. The aim of this course is to help with those goals!
