Course Description

The lyric essay takes its inspiration from multiple genres including poetry, memoir, and various kinds of research while playing with the tenets of traditional essay writing. It is the ultimate mash-up and as such offers writers the opportunity to approach self-expression from a highly personal and idiosyncratic point of view. Our class will read in this contemporary genre while also looking for its origins in the past. Together we’ll work to create writing that speaks to what it means to have all the forms at your fingertips. Reading, discussion, and writing prompts will be a part of every class.
