Spring Author Seedbed Series: Celebrating the Abecedarian Form with Hannah Carr-Murphy

Join Dr. Hannah Carr-Murphy, the James Hearst Writer in Residence at the Hearst Center, for an exploration of both classic and contemporary abecedarian poetry! This unique poetic form, which organizes each line to begin with a successive letter of the alphabet, has been used across languages and eras for its accessible structure. After the discussion, Dr. Carr-Murphy will guide you through a hands-on workshop, where you'll have the opportunity to craft your own abecedarian poem.
