CRW3021 Poetry Workshop

This course will concentrate on the production of original poetry through in-class exercises, readings, and an expectation of extensive independent practice. We will examine readings for all the basic elements of poetry and there will be additional readings on various schools of contemporary poetry. We will study and practice multiple poetic forms and there will be weekly assignments to practice more structured prosody. We will also spend time on reading and performance strategies. Students should be prepared to do weekly readings and written responses, extensive creative work, and extensive revision work. Class meeting time will be used for doing readings together, studying poetic forms, doing writing exercises, and workshops in which students will share and discuss each other’s work. Each student will be expected to lead at least one of these workshops. Students must have completed three courses at the 2000 level, one of them in the EN discipline, with grades of C or higher, as prerequisites for this course. Students cannot receive credit for both CRW 2021 and CRW3021. Credits: 3.000
