Join me for an exploration of experimental traditions in poetry in the past 60 years and discover the myriad ways in which poets have challenged the literary establishment. We will study poets who challenge Modernism, recenter identity, decolonize poetry from its Anglo-European traditions, invent new poetic forms, transform poetry into visual and musical art pieces, create uncreatively, and explore the poetic potential of digital media technologies.
