SUMMARY:The Frost Place presents Formalist Track: Freedom and Form\, a Poetry Seminar directed by Patrick Donnelly
DESCRIPTION:The Frost Place presents Formalist Track: Freedom and Form\, a 2021 Poetry Seminar directed by Patrick Donnelly\, from August 1-6\, 2021 online via Zoom. \nFrom the organizers: \nNow Accepting Applications! \nAs always\, you’ll have access to instruction from our world-class faculty\, focused attention on your work\, and the vital exchanges of peers in workshop. Our goal is to support\, refresh\, and inspire you. \n\nSpend five days with a select community of poets exploring your artistic work in the context of a rich variety of poetry ancestors and contemporaries.\nDiscover how poetic lineages and community can provide models\, provocations and correctives to widen your thinking about your own efforts.\nLearn from a distinguished and accomplished faculty how poets choose\, imitate\, enter into dialogue with\, and sometimes argue with the work of our poetic ancestors and contemporaries.\n\nThe Seminar schedule features a daily presentation/discussion exploring aspects of craft and technique\, an afternoon workshop of participants’ poems or individual\, virtual meetings with faculty\, and an evening reading\, some by faculty poets and others featuring participants \nFormalist Track: Freedom and Form \nForm is enjoying a robust comeback\, with poets writing now not just in received forms like sonnets\, villanelles\, sestinas\, ghazals\, haiku\, tanka (as well as free verse\, itself a form)\, but also in a broad array of exciting new forms including golden shovels\, bops\, duplexes\, syncopated sonnets\, and more. \nAt the Poetry Seminar\, we’re interested in form as a way to connect contemporary poets with the most ancient tools of our art\, and especially with form’s flexibility to be adapted in ways that only the future can imagine. Learn more about the Formalist Track. \nThe opportunity to discuss a full-length manuscript is also available. \nPatrick Donnelly is the author of four books of poetry\, Little-Known Operas (Four Way Books\, 2019)\, Jesus Said (a chapbook from Orison Books\, 2017)\, Nocturnes of the Brothel of Ruin (Four Way Books\, 2012\, a Lambda Literary Award finalist)\, and The Charge (Ausable Press\, 2003\, since 2009 part of Copper Canyon Press).

SUMMARY:The Life of Poetry: An Online Workshop with Ellen Bass & Frank X. Gaspar
DESCRIPTION:The Life of Poetry: An Online Workshop\, August 2-6\,  with Ellen Bass & Frank X. Gaspar \nFrom the organizers: \nIf you want to write images like that “glint of light on broken glass”—precise\, clear\, and immediately arresting—please join Ellen Bass and Frank X. Gaspar at the online The Life of Poetry Workshop. We’ll craft poems that combine compelling detail with complex thought to create work that is more powerful\, authentic\, courageous and memorable than you’ve ever written before. \nWe will take risks\, summoning the courage to go over\, under or around the censors that silence us. We’ll approach our experience from new angles to find the poem within the story. We’ll question the stories we think are true and explore the power of not-knowing and discovery. \nWe will write poems\, share our writing\, and hear what our work touches in others. We’ll also read model poems by contemporary poets and discuss aspects of the craft. But mainly this will be a writing retreat—time to explore and create in a supportive community. Though the focus is on poetry\, prose writers who want to enrich their language will find it a fertile environment.

SUMMARY:Rain Taxi presents Rita Dove in conversation with Jericho Brown
DESCRIPTION:Rain Taxi presents Rita Dove in conversation with Jericho Brown on August 3 at 5:30 p.m. Central time via Crowdcast. \nFrom the organizers: \nIn her first book of new poems in twelve years\, acclaimed poet Rita Dove investigates the vacillating moral compass guiding America’s\, and the world’s\, experiments in democracy. Deftly connecting history’s grand exploits to the triumphs and tragedies of individual lives—a trademark of the writer the Boston Globe has called “perhaps the best public poet we have”—and alternating poignant meditations on mortality with acerbic observations of injustice\, Playlist for the Apocalypse (Norton) takes us from the smallest moments of redemption to apocalyptic failures of the human soul. Join us as we celebrate the launch of this remarkable new book by one of the greatest poets of the era. Rita Dove will be in conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Jericho Brown. \nFree to attend\, registration required. We hope to “see” you there! \nAbout the Authors: \nRita Dove\, a former U.S. Poet Laureate\, is the only poet honored with both the National Humanities Medal and the National Medal of Arts. Her recent works include 2010’s Sonata Mulattica and the National Book Award–shortlisted Collected Poems: 1974–2004. Her many awards include the Pulitzer Prize\, an NAACP Image Award\, the Wallace Stevens Award\, and the Hurston/Wright Legacy Award; in 2021 she was awarded the Gold Medal for Poetry from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. She lives in Charlottesville\, where she teaches creative writing at the University of Virginia. \nJericho Brown is author of the The Tradition (Copper Canyon\, 2019)\, for which he won the Pulitzer Prize.
