Teaching with the Norton anthology of poetry - Tyler Hoffman

An invaluable tool for constructing syllabi, the
Guide offers extensive poem groupings under
three major rubrics: Components suggests
groupings that explore versification, form,
figuration and rhetoric; Traditions and
Counter-Traditions groups poems by context:
influence and intertextuality, myth, gender,
ethnicity, and nationality; Topics offers dozens of thematic clusters, including seasons, youth
and age, home and family, work, and war. The
Course Guide also includes useful suggestions
for exercises and classroom discussion.
