Course Description
Instructor: Jim Mengert, PhD
We’ll read short lyrics of some of our best poets, from the seventeenth through the twentieth century—Donne, Dickinson, Frost, Merwin, et al. The poems I’ve chosen have one element in common: they all have as their subjects an animal other than human, such as a flea, a spider, a fish, a cow, a fox. The poets’ different treatments give us insight into their different poetic sensibilities and strategies.
