Description
ENL 236 Poetics
Professor Joe Wenderoth
Scope and Purpose: The intention of this course is to develop an understanding and/or a feel for the lyric cell, which, I propose, has existed, in one way or another, in every society we have record of. By looking at a variety of poems, particularly poems closer to us in tongue and time and place, we will attempt to articulate a range a ways in which the lyric cell might be inhabited.
