Poetry Workshop - Estranging the Lyric

What if you could write as if you were someone else? Cynthia Hogue, Professor of English and Marshall Chair in Modern and Contemporary Poetry at ASU, explores ways to make a poem’s speaker new and strange: to write as “someone else who is also myself.” Exercises include a collaborative poem. Hogue has published six collections of poetry. Her awards include a Fulbright Fellowship and a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship in poetry. Cost: $25.
