ee cummings, 20th century American avant-garde poet extraordinaire, held six lectures at Harvard in the early 50s. He prefaced his hybrid presentations of poetry and more informal conversation with the statement that he hadn’t the ‘remotest intention of posing as a lecturer’. His series was based around:

2. i & their son
3. i & selfdiscovery
4. i & you & is
5. i & now & him
6. i & am & santa claus
