What is your favorite poem, poet, or muse? In the eleventh “Into the Archives” event, learn more about classic and modern poetry at IUP. Presenters will discuss specific titles, including works of poetry in the IUP Department of English’s Poetry Collection and in the IUP Special Collections and University Archives.
The first edition of “The Raven,” by Edgar Allan Poe (1809–49), and the first English printing of Dante’s Inferno, illustrated by poet and engraver William Blake (1757–1827), will make special appearances. The presentation will feature many poets and poems brought to you through a collaboration with the IUP Special Collections and University Archives (IUP Libraries) and the IUP Department of English.
