Final Review | Take-home Final

Final 4 Classes
Recursion: Williams, Loy, Stein, Zukofsky. Let's revist each in turn, thinking back to original themes (modernist impulse to reconfigure boundaries of genre, text/writer/audience, as inquiry into the conjunction of word-world) and comparing the four writers. 

Synthesis Tasks: In anticipation of each class, revisit a relevant text of your choosing (poem or prose) and post a question or comment to your blog. Use the post as an opportunity to pull together some once loose strands or to name and inquire into an issue that might still be tangled for you.  I'll do my homework too, and we'll draw on all these posts to orient discussion.
