Notes

【Course Objectives】

 Poetry often becomes extensive in length. Herman Melville’s Clarel, for example, spans approximately 18,000 lines (and Ezra Pound’s The Cantos or Charles Olson’s The Maximus Poems are also extremely long when taken as a whole), making them difficult to approach lightly. It is certain, however, that all of these works hold an important place in the history of American literature. Furthermore, the existence of such long poems demonstrates the fact that long poetic works, akin to novels, have often been written and read throughout history.
 In this course, we will focus on reading relatively long “medium-length” poems—works that, in recent years, have seldom been subjected to close reading in class. During the spring semester, we will tackle T. S. Eliot’s “The Waste Land” (1922), a representative work of Modernism. By carefully uncovering the myths, legends, and literary works upon which the text is based, critically reading the piece, and shedding light on its poetic ingenuity, the course aims to cultivate the abilities to “analyze and synthesize content” and to “conduct accurate and objective research” as outlined in the Curriculum Map. At the same time, students will be able to savor the charm of the poem. At the end of the course, students are expected to write a research paper at a high level that can be submitted to an academic journal.

【Course Contents】

 “The Waste Land” contains numerous quotations and allusions, many of which are presented in foreign languages. In this course, students are required to use existing high-quality annotations to reexamine the depth of these references on their own. Fully understanding everything, however, is nearly impossible. Rather, it is the chaos and despair created by these fragmentary collages that readers should embrace and appreciate.
 This seminar will proceed with designated presenters giving presentations based on their prepared handouts. However, participants who are not presenting must also actively engage in appreciating and analyzing the works on their own initiative.
 Although T. S. Eliot, born in St. Louis, Missouri, spent much of his life in England and even became a naturalized British citizen in 1927, this course will focus on his work as that of an American poet.
