Description

The Certificate Course in Poetry Writing is intended for working professionals who want to develop the craft of poetry writing. The course is divided into two parts:

In the first part, based on a selection of recognized masterpieces of a literary field, the students learn to analyze, dissect, reverse engineer, replicate, and adopt aspects that have made a literary work a magnum opus. Students will be encouraged to write critiques and assessments of the assigned readings as well as to discuss with their peers and the professor. In the second part, the students apply what they learned from the first part to complete creative works that will become part of their portfolio. In the process, the students are guided by the expert in the field through discussions, consultations, and feedback on their works in progress.
