The World in Miniature: Pattern and the Medieval Lyric Self

What does it mean to write a medieval poem today? Is such a thing even thinkable? Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Carl Phillips presents an illuminating exploration of medieval poetic traditions and their enduring influence on contemporary verse.

This distinguished lecture offers a rare opportunity to hear one of America’s most celebrated poets discuss how medieval approaches to prosody, imagery and form continue to shape and enrich poetry today. Join us for an evening of insight into the craft of poetry across centuries.

Date: Tuesday, April 8th, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., located at Elizabeth D. Rockwell Pavilion, University of Houston. Click here for more information.
