LATN 017. Latin Poetry and the Modernists


This course explores Latin poems influential in the creation of the modernist verse of, in particular, Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot. The Latin texts are read in the original, for their own sake and in their own context. But we also explore the readings given them by the modernists, in an attempt to assess the uses and importance of their common literary tradition.
