Lauded as one of the most important poetic voices of the last half century, W.S. Merwin had cultivated a uniquely spiritually-tuned voice concerned always with the state of nature, time, and human perception. This class will be at once a conversation revolving around topics of ecology, eastern spirituality, and poetic technique.
