EGL 117 - Queer Poetry

Course Units: 1

This class will examine and interrogate poetry-its form, its content, and everything in between-with respect to queer poetic works. We will put diction, voice, rhythm, imagery, and form in conversation with social, cultural, and political issues that surround queer poetry. From single foundational poems to contemporary poetry collections, we will dive into the relationship between poetry and queer identity. This class has critical, creative, and collaborative components and you will be asked to do them all.

100-level courses are open to all students. CC: HUL, HUM, JCHF, JLIT, WAC ISP: GSW
