Description | Notes, news clippings, copies of poems by various poets, plus parts of a typescript, intended for publication as a guide for teachers on techniques and approaches to writing poetry. The book was incomplete at the time of Beer's death in 1999. One folder of material was given the provisional title 'How to write poetry' by Damien Parsons, but it appears to form part of the same work as that contained in 2 other folders entitled 'On Poetry' by Beer. Also includes some notes for an unidentified 'Manchester lecture'. |
