Schedule |
Tu Th 11:30 am - 12:50 pm OLIN 101 |
This workshop is for
students who strongly desire to experiment with making their own writing a
means of learning, both about literature and poetry, and about the discipline
of making works of art. Stress is on growth: in the student's own work, and in
the individual’s awareness of what sorts of activities, rhythms, and tellings
are possible in poetry, and how poets go about learning from their own work.
The central work of the course is the student's own writing, along with the
articulation, both private and shared, of response to it. Readings will be
undertaken in contemporary and traditional poets, according to the needs of the
group, toward the development of familiarity with poetic form, poetic movement,
and poetic energy. Attendance at various evening poetry readings and lectures
is required. (Candidates must submit
samples of their work before registration, with optional cover letter, to Prof.
Kelly via campus mail by 3:00pm on Friday, August 20th.)

302 |
In this course we will read poems by some of the
great American poets of the twentieth century, including Langston Hughes, Ezra
Pound, T.S. Eliot, Wallace Stevens, Gertrude Stein and George Oppen. The work
they did continues to resonate in the present. Weekly assignments will be made
in relation to these readings. These assignments will take the form of a poem.
For example, we might read the poems of Robert Frost, and we will take up the
nature of narration in poetry (as Frost conceived it). The assignment might be
to write a narrative poem. Or we might take all the nouns in a poem by H.D. and
reconstrue them into a poem by you. The
goal of this class is to help you understand the relation between
subject-matter and form in developing your poetics; to help you find a
critical/analytical vocabulary; to help you discover ways to generate methods
for your own writing practice. Weekly assignments, one term project. . (Candidates must submit samples of their
work before registration, with optional cover letter, to Prof. Lauterbach via
campus mail by 3:00pm on Friday, August 20th.) Open to all levels.

This course is devoted to translation not as a
utilitarian activity but as an art. We
will be discussing (and practicing) many aspects of translation as well as
studying and critiquing translations by others, from the staid to the
experimental. Students will work on
projects of their own devising, which will be workshopped and revised. Prerequisites:
Mastery of a foreign language at the intermediate level or better, and a
love of English. Candidates must submit samples of their work (original writing is fine
- but if submitting a translation, please include the original!) with optional
cover letter via campus mail to Prof. Bernofsky by 3:00 pm Friday, August 20th.
