Teaching Poetry and Poetics
Description
This collection explores the teaching of poetry at university. Structured around three sub-sections, Poetic Close Reading, Poetic Periodicity and Poetic Toolkits, the contributors draw on a range of critical perspectives to engage with topics such as ecology, queerness, race and digitality, and use their expertise to establish links with sociology, creative writing and other disciplines in the academy. Chapters are aimed at a diverse body of learners, from workshop participants to taught postgraduates, and can serve as useful primers for lectures, modules, and educational training sessions in higher education. Situated at the cutting edge of the field, the book will invigorate pedagogical approaches to poetry and poetics for a new generation of teachers, students, and readers.
