The Poetry Project

"There is something about poetry beyond prose logic, there is mystery in it, not to be explained but admired."  - Edward Young

 

The Project

Following the inspiration of the American former Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky and a number of other thinkers/artists from around the world, the English Department at CIC began in November 2001 to promote the sharing of poetry and other poetic works in the performer's mother language. By encouraging students, staff, parents, faculty-everyone in and near our CIC community-all of us might come to better appreciate the beauty and joy found in language and in the diversity of our community.
