I originally sent these out to everyone via email, but wanted to still post them here so you can access them easily if you still choose.

ADVANCE READING, BEFORE WEEK 1 — The suggested reading in advance of our first session is "Phenomenology as a Poetic Realism,” an essay from Robert Romanyshyn. You may access this essay via Robert’s site at http://robertromanyshyn.com/files/documents/Phenomenology-as-a-Poetic-Realism.pdf.

ADVANCE ASSIGNMENT, BEFORE WEEK 1 — Choose a poem to bring to our first meeting (or better, let IT choose YOU!). We will allow time for a few volunteers to read aloud to the group the poem that brought them. After the session, you may want to share the poem that chose you in the written online group so everyone can have the benefit.
