One Quartet: 'Burnt Norton' (Spring term) (LIT 35)

  • Day and time: Monday 9:30 - 11:00
    Weekly
  • Length of course: 1 term. Spring (2 Weeks)
  • Vacancies: 0
  • Start date: 08 March 2027
  • Description:

    In this brief two-week course, we will read, think and talk about TS Eliot's 'Burnt Norton', the first of the 'Four Quartets'. The course will be, I believe, enjoyable in itself, but it will also be a kind of experiment, to see if the larger poem, the 'Four Quartets' is amenable to discussion and group-based analysis and appreciation.

  • Format: Discussion

  • Leader: Dr Patricia Loughlan
  • Several years ago, I decided to engage intensely with the Western canon of poetry. 'Four Quartets' is a beautiful mountain to climb within that canon.
