ENGL-24035 Green Shade: Poems in Place Where were going: back in time; out into the garden; down into the library. In this class we will examine three ways of "making gardens" in the medieval and early modern periods - and the tools, insights, and warnings they may offer us today. Well read some resonant texts from the history of English literatures green thoughts in green shades. How do writers create gardens and landscapes in our minds? How do books create them on the page? Are either of these kinds of imagined spaces anything like the real thing? How do past conceptions of green space, familiar or strange, shape ours today? What might attending to the specificities ot text, materiality, time, and place offer for ongoing local or global environmental conversations? [Before 1800] [AH]
