Expanded Course Description
American Sports Poetry: Let the Games Begin
“I’m gonna float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. / His hands can’t hit what his eyes can’t see.” –Muhammad Ali. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, American poets have turned to popular (and not so popular) sports as subjects and figures to express themes of human achievement, love, struggle and suffering, and deep philosophical and spiritual contemplation. Explore a wide range of American poetry and the role of sports in our understanding of race, gender, class, sexuality, and public and private life. Talk with guest speakers, attend sporting events, compose original work, and conduct your own sports poetry research.
There are many other Freshman Seminars you can take this term! Search for “FSEM” in the course subject code or visit fyp.uoregon.edu/freshman-seminars to learn more. |
