This course is about empowerment through understanding. Reading poetry involves critical thinking — the same approach that helps us to navigate life. It isn’t really about learning a new skill; it’s more like getting in closer touch with the intuitive awareness of life that we all have inside us.
All too often, our years of schooling and education leave us better at rote learning, better at memorising, better at thinking inside the box, but less creative, less intuitive, less insightful, in many ways, than when we were small children.
This course is not about facts to memorise, technical terms to master, or studying someone else’s idea of the “right” answer. It’s about developing confidence in what you think. Because poetry — all literature, really — is not about figuring out what it “means” according to someone else; it’s about what it means to you.
