\"\"<\/p>\n

Award-winning poet Hoa Nguyen<\/strong> has been offering poetics workshops – in Toronto and in cyberspace – for nearly twenty years. Born in the Mekong Delta and raised in Washington D.C., she studied\u00a0Poetics at New College of California in San Francisco. Her books include As Long As Trees Last<\/a>,\u00a0Red Juice: Poems 1998-2008<\/a>, and\u00a0Violet Energy Ingots<\/a>, nominated for a 2017 Griffin Prize for poetry<\/a>.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Alongside her own long-running private poetics workshop, Nguyen has taught poetics in numerous settings, including at Ryerson University, for Miami University\u2019s low residency MFA program, and in the Milton Avery School for Fine Arts at Bard College.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Her upcoming workshop “Cutting Across Linearity: Reading and Writing through\u00a0Emily Dickinson & Gertrude Stein” runs from Jan. 21 to Apr. 15, 2018<\/span>.<\/strong> Tuition for the 11-week course is $190. Students can attend in-person in Toronto, Canada; and there are a limitless number of seats available in cyberspace. Cyber-students may work asynchronously (i.e. on their own schedules) as well can attend the weekly Toronto sessions via a Google video call option.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

CUTTING ACROSS LINEARITY:
\nREADING AND WRITING THROUGH EMILY DICKINSON & GERTRUDE STEIN<\/h3>\n

(description from Hoa Nguyen’s website<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cAs poetry changes itself, it changes the poet\u2019s life. Subversion attracted the two of them. By 1860 it was as impossible for Emily Dickinson simply to translate English poetic tradition as it was for Walt Whitman. In prose and in poetry she explored the implications of breaking the law just short of breaking off communication with a reader. Starting from scratch, she exploded habits of standard human intercourse in her letters, as she cut across the customary chronological linearity of poetry. Gertrude Stein (1874-1946), influenced by Cezanne, Picasso and Cubism, verbally elaborated on visual invention. She reached in words for new vision formed from the process of naming, as if a first woman were sounding, not describing, \u2018space of time filled with moving.\u2019 Repetition, surprise, alliteration, odd rhyme and rhythm, dislocation, deconstruction. To restore the original clarity of each word-skeleton both women lifted the load of European literary custom. Adopting old strategies, they reviewed and re-invented them.\u201d\u2014Susan Howe<\/p>\n

In this workshop, we will read and write through alternating works: Tender Buttons<\/em> by Gertrude Stein and Emily Dickinson\u2019s Selected<\/em>edited by Brenda Hillman. These books of poetry will generate conversation and strategies for the writing we enact.<\/p>\n

Update Dec. 9:<\/em> Toronto-based seats have been filled; wait list possible. Cyber-seats available.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Format:<\/strong>
\nHow else to write poetry? Read.<\/p>\n

We spend the first hour reading poems (aloud) and another hour writing. The writing portion takes the form of starting points & prompts drawn from the poems as well as those of my own design.<\/p>\n

For cutting across linearity, we will alternate weeks reading Tender Buttons<\/em> and Dickinson\u2019s Selected<\/em> with Susan Howe.<\/p>\n

Weekly written materials include introductory and contextualizing commentary, supplemental materials, and inventive writing prompts.<\/p>\n

Workshops for virtual students culminate with a one-on-one 25-minute consultation with me. For Toronto poets, it concludes with in-class reviews of mini-manuscripts as a community of poets.<\/p>\n

All students receive weekly written materials regardless of whether virtual or in-person and unable to attend the class in real time<\/em>.<\/p>\n

There is an optional Google video call feature. A podcast recording is shared via a Google Drive folder.<\/p>\n

No workshop Feb. 18, Feb. 25.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Required texts:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Pocket Emily Dickinson
\n<\/em>Brenda Hillman, ed<\/p>\n

Tender Buttons
\n<\/em>Gertrude Stein<\/p>\n

My Emily Dickinson

 <\/p>\n

More Details on the Workshop:<\/strong>
\nBoth in-person and virtual students find this weekly engagement generates poems, provides insight on revisions of older work, gives new understanding to poetics, and inspires the reworking of dusty manuscripts.<\/p>\n

Attendance occurs in cyberspace: weekly written materials include supplemental essays, images, sound files, links, and the like.<\/p>\n

For Toronto poets, we meet in my home near Chester Station from 4 PM to 6 PM.<\/p>\n
