Focus 206: Workshop: Readers as Writers
2.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
In the Readers as Writers workshop, we consider the role of influence and revision in the making of a poem. While examining a wide range of poetry in both finished and draft form, we study the ways in which influence and revision bring a poem into existence and reshape its form on the page. Exercises are designed to guide the writing process, using the readings to inspire and inform our own creative work. Guiding texts include, but are not limited to, those being studied in Writers as Readers, which must be taken concurrently.

Focus 2061: Workshop: Readers as Writers
2.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
In the spring Readers as Writers workshop, we move from the consideration and creation of poetry to the consideration and creation of prose. As a transition between the two genres, we begin by reading and writing the prose poem, a hybrid form that borrows from and is influenced by both genres. We move from there toward a progressive lengthening of line and narrative as we read and write flash fiction, short stories, personal essay, and memoir. Guiding texts include, but are not limited to, those being studied in Writers as Readers, which must be taken concurrently.

Focus 2070: Writers As Readers
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
Writing as a creative response to reading is examined through this seminar. Just as modern students are students of literature, so too were writers in the past students of their literary heritage. How did major English writers-Chaucer, Shakespeare, Milton, Austen, Keats, and Yeats, among others-respond to what they read? Students consider the ways these writers resisted, embraced, and repudiated the efforts of those who had written before them. Readings and discussions elicit each student's own creative and critical responses. As happened in the past, the reading writer is answered by the writing reader.

Focus 2171: FOCUS: Women in Science
1.50 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
Throughout the centuries, women were interested and involved in the sciences. Their scientific contributions, however, have often been overlooked and their abilities questioned. In this year-long course, we read biographies of famous women scientists and mathematicians, in addition to scholarly articles, to examine women's involvement in science and mathematics from the 19th century to the present. We explore the ways in which women have pursued scientific knowledge, look at the cultural factors that affected them, and investigate the impact of scientific theory and social conditions on their opportunities and identities. In addition to reading about women in science, we hear a variety of women talk about their careers. Faculty from chemistry, biology, engineering, earth and planetary sciences, medicine, physics, medical administration may visit, as well as female scientists who work in industry. This course is restricted to Women in Science FOCUS Program participants, who must have concurrent enrollment in WGSS 100B (Introduction to Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies).
