SUMMARY:The Sijo: Crash Course in Traditional Korean Poetry
DESCRIPTION:The sijo is Korea’s most prominent and enduring traditional poetic form. Characterized by a clarity and accessibility that belies emotional complexity and tonal nuance\, it is a form that prioritizes the unsaid and best grapples with the unsayable. Its brevity demands strict economy of language and intentionality of silence. In this similarly brief one-day class\, we will learn about the history of the sijo\, its relevance to Korean literature\, and the unique sensibilities and affordances of the form\, while also getting several opportunities to write our own with guided instruction. Students will leave not only knowing how to write sijo\, but also how to apply the required skills to their writing as a whole. \nStudents should bring a notebook and writing utensil. \nAccess Program\nWe want our writing classes and seminars to be accessible to everyone\, regardless of income and background. We understand that our tuition structure can present obstacles for some people. Our Access Program offers writing class and seminar tuitions at a reduced rate. Most writing classes have at least one access spot available. \nPlease apply here for access rate tuition. Contact Susan Moore at susan@literary-arts.org if you have questions. \nLiaison position\nEvery in-person class and seminar at Literary Arts has one liaison position. Liaisons perform specific duties for each class meeting. If you are a liaison for a class or seminar\, the full amount of your tuition is covered by Literary Arts. Apply here for the liaison position.
