Fun Fridays! Poetry & Creative Writing: The Villanelle

Fun Fridays offer a refreshing mid-day break from work to indulge in physical, mental, or creative activity.

Do you know what a villanelle is? Dr. Levy introduced this poetic form that has its roots in the rustic songs of Italy and developed in 16th century France–and gets participants started on composing their own villanelle.

In her former career, Anne Levy, PhD, Senior Program Manager of the MGH Center for Faculty Development, taught advanced literature courses and creative writing at the high school level, from the Lycée International de Saint Germain-en-Laye to the Lycée International de Boston.
