Poetry has a lot to teach us. Through an analysis of a poem, we can become familiar with its forms, content and history.
Both the passage and the professor concur that learning poetry is of significant value to students, but they differ in opinion when it comes to how to teach poetry. Disputing the arguments that poetry analysis can benefit students, the professor cites several reasons why the analysis of poetry may have the opposite effect on them.
First, the professor says that instead of making students understand the essential concept of the poem, tedious analysis may leave students feel tired and stay away from poetry. Moreover, since poetry is the most subject kind of literature, and its meaning differ from person to person, the teachers should not impose their interpretations on the students. Instead, teachers should let students form their own opinions, for otherwise they may not be moved by the poetry in a meaningful way.
Second, he maintains that teachers should not focus too much attention on the rules of different poems since these may deprive students of their pleasure of reading a poem. Like listening to a song, students should relish in the pure joy of the sound and language of a poem. If teachers pay to much attention on the forms of a poem, the emotional impact of the poem will be less profound.
Third, dismissing the passage’s arguments that poetry analysis can help students develop the skills of critical thinking, the professor believes that the way teachers teach poems may have the opposite effect. While he believes that students can develop good skills through poetry analysis, it is unlikely that students have the ability to develop critical thinking if teachers use analysis from scholarship’s several years of hard works to teach students.
