Introductory seminar in poetry writing. Through close study of a broad range of poetic forms - and through discussion of literary devices such as imagery, figurative language, rhyme, rhythm and metre - students will improve their understanding of the art and craft of poetry writing. By the end of the course, students will have written and revised a portfolio of poems.

Note: Students may be required to submit a portfolio of writing (about 10 poems) to the instructor at least one month before the course begins.

Prerequisites: English (6) and 2nd year standing required
