Writing Poetry

(3 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

The module will involve studying the works of a number of poets, whose work will reflect the variety of techniques used in modern and postmodern poetry. You will be asked to focus on, for example, the imagery, structure, prosody and diction used in these poems, and to experiment with these elements in your own poetry writing. You will undertake a series of writing exercises that will allow you to explore these techniques and concerns.
