CRWR 214 - The Poetry of Place

FC ARHU WINT PRAX

4 credits
This course examines the role of place in shaping poetry writing. Students will actively engage with the local environment of N.E. Ohio’s natural landscape, agriculture, history, industry, and community to develop a sense of place. Weekly writing assignments reflect on the intersection between language and the environments we inhabit. Classic and contemporary texts will help us chart the changing relationship among nature, self, and community. Field trip(s) required.
