Poetry Webcasts from the Library of Congress
Tuesday November 22, 2005
Just noticed this while writing my previous post that the Library of Congress offers poetry webcasts. There are two main series of webcasts: the Poet Vision series (Lucille Clifton, one of my favorites, is in here) and the Poets and the Poem series.
Okay, the longer I stay on this site the more good stuff I'm finding. Here's more:
- Archive of Recorded Poetry & Literature: "The Archive of Recorded Poetry and Literature now contains recordings of over 2,000 poets reading their own work."
- The Walt Whitman Collection: "This collection offers access to the four Walt Whitman Notebooks and a cardboard butterfly that disappeared from the Library of Congress in 1942. They were returned on February 24, 1995."
- Poem a Day: "Poetry 180 is designed to make it easy for students to hear or read a poem on each of the 180 days of the school year."
Related: Poetry Daily serves up a new poem every day for your reading pleasure, and for you young at heart folks, there's Horrton Hears a Heart, a mashup of Poe and Seuss.
