Thickman Faculty Lecture Series: Let Evening Come: Post-Pastoral Poetry and Writing Rural Spaces

Join us Wednesday, October 21 at 6 p.m. in room W153 for a lecture with Tyler Julian, HSSE, Associate Professor of English

“Let Evening Come”: Post-Pastoral Poetry and Writing Rural Spaces will explore how rural spaces, particularly those with agricultural connections, have been presented in literature over time and how that presentation has evolved. The lecture will work to determine what accurate representation of rural spaces and their people looks like in literature. The lecture will engage classical and contemporary poetry and culminate in a brief reading of Tyler’s work to explore rural poetry fully. Once done, the topic will be open to questions.
