Showcasing Writers at 乐播传媒入口
Writers@乐播传媒入口 brings to campus writers of all kinds: poets, novelists, memoirists, essayists, radio essayists, columnists, graphic memoirists, playwrights, and short story writers.
鈥淚nteracting with writers, hearing them not only read from their work but also talk about their achievements and struggles, helps us to see that literature is a living tradition,鈥 says Ralph Savarese, professor of English. 鈥淲riters@乐播传媒入口 works its magic in the way that the College does generally: by allowing students to discover and cultivate a passionate commitment to engaged living. Students learn that carefully and beautifully crafted words matter.鈥
The program is not designed just for student writers. 鈥淭he program serves interdisciplinary learning by showcasing writers who take up matters of politics or history or science, for example 鈥 the latter is a loose but common thread in the work of a number of this year鈥檚 visitors,鈥 Savarese says.
