Introduction to Poetic Forms . INT 86AV
In this introductory workshop, we will explore a number of poetic forms in order to examine how form and content can establish intricate bonds. We will consider what is made possible when working with received forms (such as the villanelle, ghazal, elegy, pantoum, and sonnet, just to name a few) and explore how we might expand upon structural constituents by inventing our own forms that chart new poetic-experiential states. In this class we will create our own assemblages that challenge established forms through re-envisioning and innovative collaborations with structure.
