The Creative Writer as Critical Reader | Wagoner | TTh 10:30-12:20 | 13354 |
The students will make a personal anthology of twenty poems that they consider especially admirable written by American poets since 1960. The students will write comments on each of these poems with emphasis on their personal taste and critical standards, not the opinions of critics. The students will take turns defending as many of their choices in class as time allows, their classmates sitting as editorial judges.
