Poetic Truth
In this course we will be looking at
how poetry approaches truth. We will be looking at what
truth is and how it is represented in poetry and looking at
poems that present experiences and how these are presented to
the reader to best effect. We will also look at how a
fiction can be used to emphasise a bigger truth. The
course will be conducted online over three weeks, at a cost of
£30 –

Making a
Point
Sometimes it can be difficult to put
across a point of view without appearing to be hecktoring,
patronising or didactic.. In this course we will be looking at
ways in which the poet can make their point while at the same
time presenting the poem to the reader in a way that will get
them to think and perhaps decide that they might agree with
points they might not have thought about before. The course will
be conducted online over three weeks, at a cost of £30 –
