Unstructured Poetry
Description
Unstructured poetic forms are a lot like cat videos: they’re unpredictable, people tend to love or hate them—and they’re full of clauses. This clip discusses the 19th-century explosion of free verse poetry, including famous pieces from Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman; the phenomenon of spoken-word poetry (or performance poetry); and some common complaints against the multifaceted unstructured poetry genre.
