Anthology 2005

English 450 offers a seminar setting for the study of critical theory and contemporary fiction and nonfiction, as well as poetry and film, with one of our goals being to distinguish among various types of narrative.  Just as we write critical essays to explore issues of genre and Holocaust narratives, we write creatively to make connections with the texts in our course and with the events of the Holocaust.  You are invited to read some of our creative writing from fall of 2005:

• After Arendt (Katie Summers)

• Bodies (Courtney Bledsoe)

• Deconstructing the Holocaust (Felicia Mitchell)

• Hanna (Molly Moreland)

• One Last Butterfly (Josh Stamper)

• Psalm (Morgan Richards)

• Reparations (Josh Stamper)

• Schizo (Lori Fleenor)

• Vladek's Epilogue (Morgan Richards)

• We Remain (Katie Summers)

The collage that opens our collection was inspired by the poetry of children in Terezin and created by Jessica Long.  The detail in the far right corner is from a sculpture by Kenneth Treister entitled A Sculpture of Love and Anguish, which is located in the Miami Beach Holocaust Memorial.
