Discovering Poetry

We shall read poetry from the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, the Prophetic Tradition, and the Romantics, including Shakespeare, Pope, Blake, Coleridge and Browning.

There will be exercises in listening to the “voice” of the poet expressing truth and harmony, rhyme and rhythm, metaphor, emotion and story

We shall also craft some of our own poems with emphasis on sound, empathy, sense and speech.
