"Not I!": Strategies Of Post-Millennial Confessionalistic Poetry, Charlotte Pence
Faculty Research & Creative Activity
With the technological ability and pop-cultural fascination to record private moments and distribute them, poetry that reveals personal details and conflates the identity between speaker and author must feel the effects of what could be viewed as an over-saturation of the confessional—which was during the 1950s and 1960s with Robert Lowell, Anne Sexton, and Sylvia Plath a political, rebellious act.

Divining Very: Reconciling Christian And Transcendentalist Philosophies In The Poetry Of Jones Very, Kirsten Ridlen
Undergraduate Review

In his article, "Nature as Concept and Technique in the Poetry of Jones Very," Anthony Herbold identifies a seemingly blatant contradiction in the poetry of Jones Very--at once deeply reverent and undeniably Christian, the next a devotion to the secular nature, without any apparent conversation between the two modes. Herbold argues that this is evidence of a multiplicity of Verys--that there …

Treasure Hunt Without A Map: Archival Research At The University Of Pennsylvania, Meghan Strong
English and Creative Writing Independent Study Projects
Under the supervision of Meredith Goldsmith in the English Department, I spent this semester developing archival research projects for lower level students in the humanities. My project corresponded with the aims of the Council for Undergraduate Research, which works to develop undergraduate research skills throughout the disciplines. The Kislak Center is a nearby resource that has the potential to provide students with opportunities to develop crucial research skills while discovering little pieces of history that are hidden away in the archives. The final exercises presented here focus on the subjects of Walt Whitman, Marian Anderson, and Michel de Montaigne.
