Rereading the Poems of Emily Dickinson and Robert Frost

« back to classes page
Many of us were first introduced to the poems of Emily Dickinson and Robert Frost in high school. The poems captivated and delighted us. Many years have passed since then and we are older and much wiser. We will take another look at the poems of these two great American masters and see if they still resonate within us. Robert Frost once wrote that poetry is the renewal of words and Emily Dickinson referred to her poems as her letter to the world. Looking into these thought provoking, moving, and bold poems will provide us with a rich literary and personal experience. Our texts will be: Dickinson: Selected Poems and Commentaries by Helen Vendler (Harvard University Press, 2012) and any edition of The Complete Poems of Robert Frost. We look forward to your presence in class. This is a seven week class. It meets the first 7 weeks.
