ENGL 2250 - Poetry

Institution:

St Catherine University

Subject:

Description:

This introductory course teaches the reading of poetry both aloud in company and in the silence of private thought. Readers closely examine the intimate relationships among poetic forms, deliberately rhythmical speech, figurative language, poetic traditions and the feelings those verbal forces express. You practice listening to poetry read by living poets and actors, your classmates, and yourself. Though some assignments invite the oral and written imitation of poetic forms and metaphors, this is not a course in creative writing. Credit may be earned under this course number more than once for different emphases. Meets the liberal arts core requirement in literature.
