Victorian poets are prolific, challenging, inventive, and deeply engaged with the intersection of words and visual images in poetry, painting, and photography. We will read works by Alfred Tennyson, Robert Browning, Oscar Wilde, Matthew Arnold, Dante Rossetti, Christina Rossetti, Charles Dodgson (Lewis Carroll), Gerard Manley Hopkins, and others. We will examine Pre-Raphaelite painting and poetry, and collaborate with Linda Rossi's photography students to create Victorian photographs that depict Victorian poets and poems, which will be exhibited at the end of the term in the exhibition Picturesque Deconstruction.
