Average Course Rating

(-1)

In this class, we'll explore various strategies that poets have used when writing longer verse narratives. Readings will include contemporary work by Anne Carson, Christopher Logue, and Claudia Rankine, as well as historical epics such as Gilgamesh, Beowulf, and Gawain and the Green Knight. Although this class is a readings course, not a workshop, students will have the opportunity to develop narrative poems of their own.
