Teaching Poetry Writing: A Five-Canon Approach

By Tom Hunley and Tom C. Hunley

Book Overview

This book is an alternative to the full-class workshop approach to poetry writing instruction. In the five canon approach, peer critique of student poems takes place in online environments, freeing up class time for writing exercises and lessons based on the five canons of classical rhetoric: invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery.
