In an age of scientific and political revolution, how do poets respond when common beliefs about God, humans, cosmic and social order, consciousness, and gender have been taken away? Modern poetry starts in the seventeenth century when poets, notably women poets, sought new grounds for poetic expression.
This course satisfies the “Pre-1700 Guided Elective" requirement for English concentrators and Secondary Field students.
