DESCRIPTION
This module focuses on modern poetry and explores its wider connections to art, dance, photography and film in the early to mid-twentieth century. Students are introduced to key movements ? eg. symbolism, cubism, surrealism, abstract expressionism ? and will study canonical as well as less well-known poetry, focusing on aesthetics, history and cultural contexts. Students will study poetics as critical framework, as well as collaborative techniques such as free verse, collage, montage, documentary, and emphasis. This module includes field trips to galleries and museums.
