Course description:
The scholarly poem marries reading and writing, research and invention. Your research can be the subject of the poem, used as a constraint, or a filter for its composition. The scholarly poem uses an archive whether it’s philosophy, literature, science, metaphysic, pancakes, or sciatica as its source. Formally, the scholarly poem can be lyric or experimental. This course is suitable for anyone interested in writing poetry, regardless of prior experience.
