SoSe 23: PS-Surveying English Literatures: Forming Poetry
Jordan Lee Schnee
Kommentar
Against the backdrop of the rise of free verse, the 20th century saw a parallel movement towards extremely constrained writing. This seminar examines form writing in English with a focus on 20th century to contemporary manifestations. Students will learn how to analyze English poetry for formal and structural characteristics through practical examples. In the course we will also get acquainted with Barthes’ theory of the Pleasure of the Text and look at contemporary UK writers like Philip Terry and publishers like Penteract Press. Some questions we will explore in the course are: How does form potentiate poetry? How do “difficult” constraints paradoxically bring new enjoyment to writers and readers? Schließen
