Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This course will offer practical experience of textual analysis focused on poetry. We will explore how it is that poets communicate with us and affect us. This means we will try to understand the relationship between the written texts, on the one hand, and how we understand them, on the other. Our overall aim will be to make poems (and here we will include song lyrics also) meaningful for learners of English. Poems will be selected from the canonical to the fringe, ranging from The Bard to The Smiths. Our analyses will also include examples of media transfer, such as poems set to music, visual renderings and dramatic versions.
Assessment and permitted materials
