The @librarycongress mourns the passing of iconic American dancer & choreographer Judith Jamison. She was instrumental in the Library’s acquisition of the Alvin Ailey Dance Foundation Collection, ensuring that its history and impact remains accessible for generations.

Enjoyed #2 of @tejucole's Clarendon Lectures - this time about the poet W.S. Merwin, who, Prof Cole suggests in a great phrase, aimed 'to deprive the poem of its sturdiness'. These lectures are proving the great value of paying close & sustained attention to poems like these.

It's out! Anyone who wants to learn how to read a poem, write a poem (or teach a poem), this book has craft lessons, creative and critical exercises, and lots of examples of close readings. Good for high school up to grad school, novice to expert poets.
