The Surprising and Inevitable Art of the Glosa

Learn from other poets and experiment with new uses of language by writing a glosa!  The glosa is a structured poetic tradition that involves borrowing lines from other texts. This art of “glossing”—elaborating or commenting on a text—allows writers to deepen their relationship to other poems, consider the ways their writing is in conversation with other writers, and build on other writers’ ideas.  Please bring four lines from a poem or song to this workshop to try out this form of poetry.

This in-person workshop will be delivered by visiting instructor, Anna Lee-Popham.
