CRTW 527 Writing Workshop: The Essay as Form

When driven by linguistic music and associative speculation as much as by facts, the essay becomes a conceptual hybrid, existing between poetry and prose and making the most of techniques associated with both. This course explores the essay as an unorthodox form, one that organizes experience by way of unconventional approaches to inquiry and knowledge.
