ISHU 317 - The Writer as Cartographer: A Class in Poetry and Memoir Just as a cartographer is one who makes maps, projecting an area of the earth’s surface on a flat plane, so is a writer able to transform an imagined shape into real shape. In much the manner of a cartographer, a writer must “brave the elements” in order to come closer to an understanding of what is mysterious. With a focus upon poetry and memoir, this class will ask students to read widely, to respond to assigned readings through essays and annotations, to produce creative work on a weekly basis, and to share such work openly in a workshop setting.
