The Secret Life of Metaphor: A Poetry workshop with Alan Murray.
What if metaphor were not just something that we use occasionally for particular purposes, but something that we cannot help but use all the time even when we think we are not using it – something that works secretly in the background, shaping the way we think about things and even the way we perceive the world around us?
Through a series of writing exercises and examples taken from poetry and prose, philosopher and poet Alan Murray will guide you through the strange world of metaphor, asking you to think about how metaphor is defined, how it can be analysed and constructed, and how to make effective use of it in your own writing. Participants will also be invited to produce a poem of their own on themes arising out of the discussion, and be offered friendly and constructive feedback.
