Medieval English PoetryThis course will explore a sampling of medieval poems about a variety of topics. We will read mostly short lyric poems, but one class will be dedicated to a longer chivalric romance. Our class sessions will be based in discussion about the poems, many of which are anonymously written. We will read the poems in modern English, with the original Middle English on hand. Readings will be pre-circulated each session. No previous experience with Middle English or poetry is required. Margo Kolenda-Mason is a PhD Candidate in English at UM, where she studies medieval and renaissance literature.
