Visions of the Spiritual in Poetry: Mary Oliver, Rainer Maria Rilke, Mark Doty and More
This forum takes place at 10:10 AM in the Chittim-Howell House. Norwalk Poet Laureate Laurel Peterson returns to St. Paul’s to lead a discussion on how poetry can help us access and think more deeply about the spiritual world. Peterson will reflect on works by early twentieth century central European poet Rainer Maria Rilke and modern American poets Mary Oliver and Mark Doty, focusing specifically on how these three poets conceive of the otherworldly and divine.
