Andrew Hudgins, Humanities Distinguished Professor in English at Ohio State University, will present "Inside 'Out, Out--': A Close Look Inside Frost's Poem," at 11 a.m., Tuesday, April 13, in Founders Hall at Bluffton University. The event is free and open to the public.
Hudgins, who will examine the poem "Out, Out--" by Robert Frost, is the featured speaker at Bluffton's 26th annual English Festival. The festival is an event for local high school sophomores, juniors and seniors, who visit the university for a day of workshops and discussion with Bluffton faculty and the featured writer.
Aside from teaching, Hudgins has published several collections of poetry, including "Saints and Strangers," a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in poetry, and "After the Lost War," which won the Poets' Prize and was a National Book Award finalist. His work has also appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, The Hudson Review and The Paris Review, among other publications.
