DEAD POETS WORKSHOP

For October, b l u s h presents our DEAD POETS WORKSHOP, an online workshop-seminar, co-lead by b l u s h editors Jon Ruseski & Rachelle Rahmé. In this class we will read DEAD POETS for inspiration and discussion. The texts provided will be scarce, rare, under-read, and under-circulated, ranging from Ancient Greece to Sung Dynasty China to 20th Century New York. Emphasis is placed on the decadent, esoteric, strange, and erotic. Students will submit poems for feedback on a weekly basis, with optional writing prompts also provided. We will put our writing in conversation with the DEAD to better understand why were are even writing poems in the first place.
