Advanced Poetry with Stacy Szymaszek
Mon, Mar 28, 2022 - Mon, Apr 18, 2022
6:30 pm - 9 pm ET
One of my favorite ways to think about poetry is “an art of sounds moving in time,” to quote Karl Shapiro.
In this workshop, we’ll read and write poems with an eye toward the ear. How can we expand sonic presence in our poems to register another layer of meaning in sound’s own right? We’ll read poems aloud and listen to recordings of poets reading. The atmosphere will be supportive of discussion, and experimentation in your own sense of prosody.
Students are chosen by Stacy Szymaszek on the basis of a manuscript submission. Applications must be received by Monday, February 28, at 5 pm. View the submission guidelines.
