Not making Sense of Poetry
Professor John Whale
This talk aims to break down some of the barriers which make many readers think that poetry is not for them by showing how it operates in ways that are different from prose – how it uses the possibilities of language to be creative and not simply ‘make sense’. It will be illustrated with examples from some well-known poems.
