This course will uncover some of the most moving poetic works of the 19th century. Over six weeks, you will have the opportunity to explore work by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, William Barnes, Thomas Hardy and Emily Brontë. We will also read together Tennyson’s remarkable poem about grief – and belief - In Memoriam. Crucially, we will read all of these poems not as dusty old pieces of history, but as unique works of art which still have the power to move and enlighten us today.
