Marjorie Book Continuing Education seeks volunteers to participate in and learn alongside adults and teens with disabilities. Volunteers can be paired with an individual with a disability to help facilitate their participation in the class.
The Nature of Poetry will focus on poets who reflect the power of nature through their words. The poems we read are chosen from a variety of genres, authors, and historical periods, ranging from sonnets to blues, Walt Whitman to Mary Oliver, and American Transcendentalism to the present. Students will explore the distinctive characteristics of poetry as a genre and have the opportunity to engage in conversation about poetry with contemporary Cincinnati poets.
