  What Hopkins Can Show Us About How To Read and Teach Poetry Better
  April 3, 2024 | 12:30 - 2:00 pm CST | Prof. Emeritus Frank Fennell | Loyola Hall, Room 318
  In his new book The Frugal Chariot: Readers, Reading, and the Case of Hopkins Professor Emeritus Frank Fennell outlines what he has learned from his decades-long study of how ordinary readers, not academics, approach the poet. In the process he believes he has learned how we need to teach poetry differently, indeed how his own teaching methods were misdirected. As one reviewer said, This is a seasoned scholars bold challenge to his discipline, and it will be a balm to anyone who loves poetry and has lamented the life-sapping ways it is so often taught and studied.
