Welcome and introduction:
Nathan Antiel has been teaching poetry since 2010. He began teaching Literature and Composition and Humane Letters at the Trinity School at River Ridge, and his teaching has ranged from reading William Blake with 7th and 8th graders to full courses on Paradise Lost and Shakespeare’s sonnets to juniors and seniors in high school to courses for Thales College on classical education and literary masterpieces. In addition to Milton and Shakespeare, Antiel teaches integrated humanities courses on art and aesthetic theory, American history and literature, and Early Modern history, philosophy, and literature. He works as an editor for Classical Academic Press, overseeing the Humanitas series.

Having studied history and literature as an undergraduate, Antiel read for an MPhil in Anglo-Irish Literature at Trinity College Dublin, writing on theological aesthetics in James Joyce’s Ulysses. Afterwards, he took an MAR in Religion and Literature from the Institute of Sacred Music at Yale, working as poet Christian Wiman’s graduate assistant and studying poetry under Harold Bloom. More recently, he completed the MAT in Classical Education at the Templeton Honors College.
