Season 3 Trailer
Season 3 of \u201cOpen Book\u201d is about reading literature, specifically long-form poetry. Some are old favourites, and some are poems I\u2019ve been meaning to read for years: Walt Whitman\u2019s \u201cSong of Myself\u201d; Simon Armitage\u2019s modern translation of the medieval dream-vision \u201cPearl\u201d; and a host of other narrative and lyrical selections. It\u2019s about hearing the language, and not worrying quite so much about interpreting it.
\nAs ever I welcome comments and suggestions at ullyot@ucalgary.ca -- and I end this trailer with a reading of Christina Rossetti\u2019s sonnet, \u201cRemember.\u201d
