- The difference between denotation and connotation, and how to not drift away from formalism.
- There is a very methodological way to writing poetry where every syllable is meaningful and purposely put there. There is rhythm in poetry.
- The plot isn't just the story. It is the manipulation of sequence of events to create a desired effect. Literature has a very scientific and theoretical side to it.
I really need to learn:
- How the rhythm in poetry works (really that blew my mind).
- How humor and comedy affects the readers and how to achieve desired meaning with verbal humor and tone.
I feel confident enough to teach: Figurative language.
