Description:

Continuity in Community: Poetry and Art Since 1950. This course is a hybrid: a study of the arts and community as well as a poetry writing workshop. As such, the class is intended for students interested in creative writing, art, and music. Baseline readings will most likely include Daniel Kane’s All Poets Welcome: the Lower East Side Poetry Scene in the 1960’s, which will be used to survey a sampling of arts groups/movements since 1950 such as Black Mountain, the San Francisco Renaissance, the New York School, and the Black Arts Movement. The poetry workshop will entail in-class creative and critical writing exercises. Student work will also be presented to the class for commentary and critique.
