Exercises in Empathy [Ruth Joffre]

All Levels | It’s often said that reading makes us better people by increasing our empathy. But the reverse is also true: increased empathy makes us better readers and, as a result, better writers. In this class, we’ll learn how to exercise our empathy through readings, discussions, and writing exercises. Readings will includes excerpts from work by Leslie Jamison, Alice Munro, and others.
