Why is poetry so beautiful? Why do we find ourselves re-reading poems over and over again? And what is it about poetry that makes us feel so fulfilled? Poetry, in particular, has a privileged position among the arts and it has a unique way of revealing truth. This keystone presentation breaks down the basics of poetry through a philosophical lens and explains why poetry makes us feel so full. The speaker will also share a few poems from the collection she has written over the course of her time at Quest.
