【Course Objectives】

The 19th century was America’s age of poetry. Female poets such as Lydia Sigourney and fireside poets such as Henry Wadsworth Longfellow flourished during this time. Emily Dickinson was also active during this time though many of her sharp-witted poems went unpublished. Among these figures of American poetry, the most significant of the 19th century poets was Walt Whitman. He took it upon himself to speak for America and her people and did his best to personify them. Without reading Whitman’s work, one will not have a sufficient understanding of American poetry or literature.
In this course, students will experience the world of Walt Whitman through understanding his poetic devices and poetic imagination. Students will also work towards the goals of gaining a general understanding of British and American literary methodology and being able to produce high quality, critical presentations and reports as outlined in the curriculum map.

【Course Contents】

The fall semester will cover Walt Whitman’s iconic work “Song of Myself.” However, due to it being a long-form poem, students will conduct intensive readings of selected vital sections of the work to build their understanding of the whole piece. Ed Folsom’s commentary of the work will be used as a reference for literary analysis. Contrasting sections from the 1855 version and the 1892 version will also be important. Students will learn about the American culture and society that surrounded Whitman and his works.
In this seminar, assigned students will produce handouts and give presentations on the passages and they proceed through the work. Those not presenting must be active and willing participants in appreciating the work.
