ENGL6986: Writing Workshop 2: Experiments in Form
In this mixed genre workshop unit students will explore developments in poetry and prose that focus on experiments in form, the relationship between structure, voice and content, and practical approaches to finding a form to best convey your creative intentions. Writing craft skills will be developed through exercises and workshopping in a supportive peer group as well as reading, analysis and critical reflection. Areas covered may include the contemporary lyric, hybrid forms, documentary and activist poetics, word and image, erasure and other forms of 'writing through', sound and performance, and processual writing.
