The Art and Beauty of Emily Dickinson's Poetry

About

Welcome to my channel, where I make the study of poetry available to readers outside the university. I'm Adam Walker (PhD, Harvard University), and I believe that close reading requires careful and reverent attention to the shape of sound and meaning. It helps readers have an imaginative encounter with poetry and cultivates the conditions under which a love of literature may be learned and deepened. Experiencing poetry is so much more than just learning what the poet could have said if he or she had written a paragraph instead of a poem. I started this channel to show how poetry can be enjoyed as a verbal art form. I offer literary lectures without midroll ads.
