<dd>Seeking examinations of poems about age, aging, and old age, in
the<br>

of<br>

<br>

<dd>depicted poetically? (How) does the poet's age vary the depictions
of<br>

<dd>aged speakers' or other aged characters' identities? What ties
the<br>

<dd>poets' depictions of aging and old age to their individual cultures?
<br>

<dd>How do ideas of and responses to aging reflect or resist their<br>

<dd>cultural contexts? Explorations of all aspects of aging and old
