In this chapter, Dan Disney speculates on those processes at work when a poem transmits into a non-native language. In acquiring a speaking position, L2 proto-poets participate in processes somewhat similar to poets using their L1, and yet particular pressures exist: how to feel like ourselves in a language we do not quite feel at home in? Exploring a heuristic methodology grounded in Creativity and Literary Studies and taught to L2 students at a university in South Korea, Disney proposes poetry as a genre that can activate inter- and intrapersonal learning outcomes while advancing lexical, systemic, and creative literacies.

Anne Carson’s Decreation (2006) interrogates both the reality of the real and the possibilities for expressing glimpsed, sublime meta‐realities. The article argues that Carson reverses conventional (masculine) responses to sublime experience, and recuperates the feminine sublime as a radical, exemplary mode that removes – rather than enshrines – boundaries between the subject and immersion in the real.1
