The course is based on gaining a deeper understanding of Emily Dickinson and her life, particularly in relation to American literature, history, and the visual arts. In doing so, students will use several different modes of expression and articulation to present their thoughts on Emily Dickinson. There will be written responses to specific aspects of her work, creative exercises based on her life as well as principles at work in her work-the latter will be particularly helpful in understanding her work. Students will have the opportunity to explore video and visual arts as modes of thinking critically and creatively. Each week, one student will be responsible for presenting a curation of poems on a particular theme.
