WRIT 197J SC - Topics in Writing: Eye-Opening Writing


“Light on the walls of old houses, June. Passerby, open your eyes,” said the poet Adam Zagajewski. In this class, we’ll focus on writing what we see, whether it’s through our eyes or other senses. What can it mean to describe? What magic can be wrought by translating the physical world into words? We’ll work rigorously on short pieces of our own prose, and we’ll read selected texts by, among others, Agnes Martin, Shirin Neshat, Susan Sontag, Esmé Weijun Wang, and Maria Gainza.
