Poetry at Bennington—Spring 2019

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | Master Class with Erica Dawson: “The Image Narrative."

We will reconsider our definitions of narrative poetry. We will look at ways to write our experiences without relying on traditional narrative structures and devices, like climax and resolution. How are these conventions useful for poets? How are they limiting? How, on the page, can we subvert conventional storytelling? And why do it?
