453 Poems in All Kinds of Weather

Literature/Film Studies | Available (Membership Required)

Weather through the seasons, often with its associated emotions, has long been a topic of human attention in conversation, written correspondence, and poetry. In this class, we will read and discuss a variety of poems about the seasons and their weather – poems written in English across the centuries. An email copy with a reading schedule of the selections will be provided.
