Welcome to the course blog for Eng120p. This is the place for you to post your comments or questions about assigned readings, subjects mentioned in class, or just about anything at all having to do with the close reading of literature.
I'll start by mentioning a useful website, Poets.org, by the Academy of American Poets (there's also a link to it on the main course page). By all means check it out: in addition to a selection of poems from a wide range of poets, it features biographical information, links to criticism, and in many cases, audio files of the poets reading their poems. Here, for example, is their entry on Rita Dove, the author of "Flash Cards," which we shall discuss tomorrow.
Do you have any suggestions about how to make this blog a more useful resource? If so, please do let me know!
