Literature MIT

Why do MIT students love Medieval literature? Because it's "challenging and rewarding" — and "it's a portal to another world."

Meet MIT Literature Professor Arthur Bahr, an acclaimed teacher and trusty guide to a distant world. Story: https://bit.ly/WorldPortal

Tonight! Join MIT Literature and CMS/W for David Thorburn in the William Corbett Poetry series! His first book of poetry "Knots."

Generations of MIT undergraduates have taken his lecture course, “The Film Experience,” which now reaches an international audience on YouTube. He was born in Manhattan and grew up in an old farmhouse in Randolph, New Jersey. He’s written a book on Joseph Conrad and many essays and reviews on literature and media. Knots is his first book of poetry.
