Abstract

In this thesis, I explore the history of blackout poetry and how it can be used in the classroom setting. I assess the place this genre of poetry has in academia by applying the theoretical lenses of deconstruction and post-structuralism. I also explore how scholars teach poetry and implement blackout poetry in their classrooms. To support this research, I showcase my own examples of blackout poetry as examples of how blackout poetry can be created.
