Poetry's Engagement with Modernism

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a cultural movement known as "Modernism" turned the world of art inside out. So deep was its impact, and so compelling the forces that gave it rise, that "modernity" transcended its arts-related meaning to become a vital historical force in its own right. As such, the idea of modernity, so richly expressed in poetry and the other arts, is still very much at the center of world events. The poems we read and discuss will, of course, address the poetics and ideas within each poem, but we will also examine how these themes and techniques foreshadow many of the conflicts and challenges we are dealing with today. That's quite a claim, and it should be intriguing to see whether the class and the poetry live up to it. Presenter: Barton Kunstler, Ph.D., has written and studied poetry all his life. He holds an undergraduate degree in English literature and a doctorate in Classical Studies from BU. His poems have been published in various venues and he has run writing and communication programs. He was a full professor and program director at Lesley University’s School of Management. This program is a part of the Council on Aging's Lifetime Learning Series.

What is healthy vs. unhealthy diet? Why it is important to choose a healthy diet? How do you know if you are eating healthy? What does healthy lifestyle comprises of? What is the importance of proper sleep, hydration, exercise, and stress management for well being? In this talk by Dr. Vaishali Verma, she will be delving into answering these questions.  This is a VIRTUAL program only.  Please register to receive the Zoom link.  This program is cosponsored by the Sherborn Library and the Sherborn COA.  About Dr. Verma: Dr. Verma was born and raised in India. She found her inspiration to venture into the realm of medicine from her father who practiced integrative medicine in India for 35 years. She devoted 5.5 years to the study of Ayurvedic medicine in India. During the final phase of her education, she joined my father’s clinic, an experience that significantly honed her clinical skills. After completing my education in Ayurvedic medicine, she worked as a resident medical officer with OB/GYN in an Indian hospital, gaining hands-on experience in midwifery and women's health. In 2006, Dr. Verma's path led her to the United States, where she continued her holistic clinical education. She pursued a rigorous 4-year Doctor of Naturopathic program from an accredited naturopathic institution, Bastyr University, located in Washington. Her journey through Bastyr University was followed by a three-year period of providing holistic primary care in Seattle, Washington. In 2016, she relocated to Massachusetts and took a sabbatical from her practice to embrace the arrival of her second child in 2017, cherishing valuable moments with her new family member. Dr. Verma has been a Sherborn resident since April 2021. Currently, holding a licensure as a Naturopathic Doctor in Massachusetts, she joined Boston Holistic Health Center located in Boston Back Bay in August 2023. In her practice she focuses on women’s health and GI health. She takes a patient centered approach to holistic care, rooted in an understanding of an individual’s complete medical history, social history, genetic makeup, environmental influences, dietary preferences and lifestyle choices. She combines diet and lifestyle counseling, botanical medicine, homeopathy, and nutritional supplements with Ayurvedic medicine to holistically assess each individual and tailor wellness plan to their needs. In her free time, she loves to cook for her family, enjoy nature walks, dance, listening to music and spending time with her kids. https://sherbornma.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/diet-and-lifestyle-choices-for-wellness/
