课程概述

Twelve experienced faculty members from across the United States present their analyses of ground-breaking modern American poets in richly illustrated video lectures. The course highlights both major poets—from Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson through T.S. Eliot, H.D., Amy Lowell, Hart Crane, Langston Hughes, Muriel Rukeyser, and many others—and influential movements. The course mixes historical overview with close readings of individual poets and poems. Most courses give only one instructor’s point of view. This one matches the diversity of US poetry with lectures by a score of talented faculty. They bring their special perspective to the material while also presenting a coherent view of more than fifty years of US poetry. Throughout the course the lectures are illustrated with vivid images of the events, people, and places mentioned in the poems themselves. Readings by both the poets themselves and experienced faculty highlight the texts. On screen displays of text and quotations make it easy to follow the material. This is a course that takes advantage of the medium to bring you sights and sounds that would be difficult to incorporate in classroom lectures....

In depth, and eye opening to many American poets. A great mind expander and real introduction to the poetry of the Native Americans. Brilliant.

Modern American Poetry course is such a wonderful one. It helps me a lot to know about American poetry, poets, movement, and literary reviews.

The classes are great but it won’t let you complete it unless you play the $49 which really bummed me out. I finish 97% and couldn’t finish over the fact that I didn’t wanna enroll.. so I unenrolled even though I finished it so that it wouldn’t clutter my in progress classes.

Good overall review: I encountered stuff I did not know before. Just a little highbrow.

It was really hard to complete the course as not enough peer reviewers were there. Had to switch sessions twice.

Don't waste your money, do it for free. Your certificate depends on other students' willingness to grade your work and this never gets done on time. I have to reset deadlines and I don't know if I'll eventually get my certificate

I'm interested in the good, the beautiful, and the true. This course wallows in the ugly, the nonsensical, and the ribald. Pass, thanks.
