LIT 2030 Spring 2022 Doran

In “Intro to Poetry: An Exploration of Poetry as Politics, Pop Culture, and Periscope” we will engage with a diverse set of poets (including Claudia Rankine, Terrence Hayes, and Anna B. Sutton), forms, critics, and subgenres of poetry in order to work toward a meaningful understanding of the role of poets and poetry in our current culture. Students should expect to read, review, analyze, and compose poetry in this course.
