Event DescriptionEncounters with Beauty through Poetry
Presented by Lynne McEniry, Academic Affairs Division Coordinator, College of Saint Elizabeth
This engaging, interactive presentation will explore ideas about beauty in contemporary poems by Mary Oliver, Mark Doty, and others. Lynne McEniry will discuss the poets’ visions of beauty as they consider the natural world, visual art, and our human relationships. The connection between a poem’s beauty and concepts of language, line breaks, and metaphor will also be addressed.
