But how do we deliver these lessons without being pedantic or didactic? And how do we even find these lessons in the first place? \nWhile this class won’t focus too much on the profession of teaching\, it will deal with one of its fundamental principles: how to communicate with a minimum of static and misinterpretation. So\, we’ll be doing a lot of talking: about contemporary poems\, craft essays\, each other’s poems and revisions\, and why it is we write. With a particular focus on the relationship of form to content and poetical-rhetorical strategies\, this class will aim for discovering and writing about the profound within the quotidian\, the wonder inside the banal\, the breadth within the shallows. \n URL:https://inprinthouston.org/event/teachers-as-writers-poetry-workshop/ LOCATION:Inprint House\, 1520 W Main St\, Houston\, TX\, 77006\, United States CATEGORIES:Winter/Spring 2015,Writers Workshops ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://inprinthouston.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/RM3_9743-e1422056346500.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
