This module will explore a wide range of contemporary Anglophone poetry and poetics. Reading a collection each week by a contemporary poet working in the UK, Caribbean, US, or Canada, we will consider how poets reflect on the crises and challenges of their moment; how race, gender and class are thematised in poetry, and shape its reception; how poets work within the particularities of a genre, through generative constraints, or across the possibilities of a collection; and how these poets respond to historical traditions, as well as inventing new forms to carry us into the future.
