Just a few days left to register for 'Appreciation of Poetry' course

I'm really looking forward to getting my 'Appreciation of Poetry' course started in just over a fortnight, on Wednesday, 5 October. Themes will include: ways of understanding and reading a poem; how poetry is made; the sonnet; the villanelle and forms of rhyme; poetry in free verse; language and vision in ekphrasis; the haiku; image, nature and description; common things: poetry of the antipoetic and spoken word. We'll explore the work of the poets below as well as RS Thomas, Wendy Cope, Patrick Kavanagh, Lucille Clifton, Sylvia Plath & Bronwyn Lea. Only 10 days left to register! Contact berna.morgan@nuigalway.ie for further information and see page 10 of the Short Courses booklet: http://www.nuigalway.ie/…/fil…/Short-Courses-Series-2016.pdf See also my last post with full details.
