Abstract | One of the most effective vehicles for testing students is new material, but it is frequently difficult to find selections by authors with whom students have no familiarity or about whom an abundance of critical material does not exist. The works of Lawrence Ferlinghetti provide an excellent source not only for testing knowledge, but also for instructing through the examination process. Relatively unknown to young students today, Ferlinghetti's works are rarely anthologized; and other than scattered reviews of a mixed nature and a few chapters in the books of fellow poet-critics, there is a dearth of scholarly criticism about them. These factors, combined with his relative obscurity and diversified background, make Ferlinghetti's poetry a perfect source for testing and teaching materials. Only rarely can one find a single poem that contains an abundance of various poetic devices, is relatively comprehensible, leads to thoughtful retrospection, and offers reading enjoyment. Many such poems exist in the body of Lawrence Ferlinghetti's works. (RAE) |
