Academy Seminars on Rumi and Ovid: Sign Up Today

New Literary Seminars

“The Academy opened a portal in my brain that had long been closed since my college days,” wrote a recent student. “To learn about poetry from a scholar whose life’s work is the study of that poet was exhilarating.” 
 
This summer, open a portal into the art of poetry with our new literary seminars on Rumi and Ovid.
Haleh Liza Gafori on Rumi
 
Explore Rumi’s views on divine love, heartache, ecstasy, and liberation with Gafori, the first Iranian American female poet to translate Rumi’s ghazals into English.

Three sessions: August 6, 13, & 20
2:30–3:45 p.m. EDT 
Live over Zoom with recordings available

Live over Zoom with recordings available
