UPCOMING SEMINARS:
The Poetry of Emily Dickinson
Tues.20th March, 7.00pm
Run by Dr Will May.
This innovative masterclass will take students on an exploration of the work of Spooky American Gothic poet Emily Dickinson, with a special focus on 'I'm nobody! who are you?', 'There's a certain slant of light' and 'Because I could not stop for death'. As well as being a distinguished academic, Dr May is a writer and a composer. Hence the seminar will finish by examining 'because I could not stop for death' in the light of musical settings of the poem. We recommend students read the poems before the masterclass.
The Poetry of Yeats
Tues. 27th March, 7.00pm
Run by Dr Mike Craddock.
In this seminar we will explore the poetry of Irish Romantic Symbolist turned atypcial Modernist WB Yeats, with a special focus on 'An Irish Airman Foresees his Death'. The seminar should be excellent revision for those studying one of the greatest poets, and unmissable for anyone interested in poetry. Dr Craddock is the author of a number of acclaimed teaching resources, including a scholarly pack of material on Yeats, available from Zig Zag education.
Best wishes,
