The Poet as Bricoleur in the Era of Trash and Graphomania | Melanie Almeder

O, Miami Edition 6pm Wednesday, April 24 The Betsy-South Beach, 1440 Ocean Drive, Miami Beach, FL 33139 The class will open with a brief outline of the history of the “found poem,” and the possibilities it has created for poets. We will look at models of found poems to consider the decontextualization of language, the foreclosure of irony, and, finally, what it means to be a poet/bricoleur in this era. Melanie Almeder studied literature, creative writing, and art history at the University of Virginia. She received an M.F.A. in poetry from the University of Massachusetts, and an M.A. and Ph.D. in contemporary novel and narrative theory from the University of Florida. Her poetry has appeared in Poetry, Five Points, the Georgia Review, Seneca Review, and Cortland Review, among others. She lives in Roanoke, Virginia, and teaches English and creative writing at Roanoke College. Her first collection of poetry, On Dream Street, won the Editors’ Prize at Tupelo Press, and was a finalist for the Walt Whitman Award. Her poetry has been nominated three times for the Pushcart Prize. In 2011, she was given an Outstanding Faculty Award by the State Council of Higher Education and Dominion Resources.
