X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>In three lectures followed by discussion\,
  Margaret Soltan\, Emerita\, George Washington University\, will analyze t
 hree increasingly philosophical modern poems:</p>\n<p><strong><em>Cape Bre
 ton</em> by Elizabeth Bishop</strong></p>\n<p><strong><em>Santorini: Stopp
 ing the Leak</em> by James Merrill</strong></p>\n<p><strong><em>Sunday Mor
 ning</em> by Wallace Stevens</strong></p>\n<p>All three do what most of th
 e poetry of our secular time does - they elaborate on the essential myster
 y of life\, and they seek meaning through engaging in that mystery in vari
 ous deeply expressive settings -- Cape Breton\, Nova Scotia\; the volcanic
  Greek island of Santorini\; and an unspecified mountain setting of great 
 beauty.&nbsp\; The poets try to read\, and try to help us read\, the human
  and natural world that surrounds and sometimes seems to speak&nbsp\;to us
 .&nbsp\; We'll consider both the verbal brilliance of these famous poems\,
  and the metaphysical suggestions within them.</p>\n<p><strong>Saturdays\,
