Lit Fest 2024

In this generative intensive, we’ll examine the relationship between content, voice, and form by discussing the structural elements of poetry, such as rhythm, meter, metaphor, rhyme, and repetition. We’ll read and experiment with forms, including the contrapuntal, pantoum, golden shovel, ekphrastic, and erasure. Assignments will be generative in nature; no feedback or reading will be assigned, though example poems will be read and discussed during our classes.
