Who's been thinking about revolution lately? If this sounds like you, perhaps you need to take ENGL 3307 with Dr. Piccitto.
If you think modern poetry tends to be a bit illusive, you're right, but you should still take Dr. Fraser's ENGL 3319 class next year.
What exactly is a book? Join Dr. Roby in this deep dive into the history of writing, reading, and the book.
Join us April 10 at 3 pm in the Mount Library's MacDonald Room to launch Tegan Zimmerman's debut poetry book Chimeras. Author reading/Q&A, in conversation with poet Sue Goyette, hosted by Clare Goulet. All welcome. Free
For those eager to learn more about the history of rhetoric and persuasive writing more broadly, we highly recommend Dr. Street's cross listed course on Tricksters, Liars, and Sophists.
The English Society is looking for students eager to join next year's executive team!
Is The Girl, the Gold Watch, and Dynamite the greatest movie ever made? No, no, it's not, but I made @upinthisbrain.bsky.social @oliverrockside.bsky.social @heavydishongry.bsky.social and @aliencg.com watch it and talk about it. So that was fun.

Dr. Macfarlane's Feminisms course is our only full year upper level course this year, and it counts as a theory credit! The topic is also particularly relevant for today's pressing issues.
Registration is live! Writing to Influence counts for both the English major/honours as well as the Writing minor.
Registration opens in 1 day! All English majors are required to take Shakespeare with the wonderful Dr. Templin, so make sure you're ready to grab a spot when registration opens.
Course registration opens in 2 days! Queer Theory is one of only two 4000-level courses being offered this year, and it tends to fill fast.
