Lucy Cavendish College has launched Fifty Poems, an innovative online poetry resource.
It captures 50 poems, written by 50 female poets and read by voices across the whole College community - including staff, students, fellows and alumnae.
探花直播project aims to encourage people to engage with poetry as a spoken form, as well as celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the foundation of Lucy Cavendish.
Fifty Poems is the creation of three Lucy Cavendish English students Kassi Chalk, Charlotte Quinney and Hannah Sch眉hle-Lewis.
Visitors to the Fifty Poems area of the College website will discover recordings of an eclectic selection of poems, covering a wide range of topics. They encompass nature, faith, sex, death, family, race and gender.听
