FOUR
AMERICAN WOMEN POETS (3) Salter Limit 15 Perm. Req’d.
A study of four American poets (Emily Dickinson, Marianne
Moore, Elizabeth Bishop, and
Amy Clampitt), non of whom saw themselves primarily as women poets.
All are known for their originality, and shaped the course of
poetry in our time--by both women and men--in significant ways.
Student poets will engage in poetic exercises including memorization
and imitation, as well as some critical writing. Questions about
gender, and about poetic mentoring and influence, will be addressed,
while we pay close attention to poetic form.
