Synopsis
A translation of the classical work Ars Versificatoria by Matthew of Vendome, which was written around 1175. The translator, Aubrey E. Galyon, who also contributes an introduction. The Ars versificatoria is the earliest of the 'new' arts of poetry and consists of four uneven parts: inner meaning; elegance of diction; schemata, tropes, and colors of rhetoric; and treatment of the material. These divisions do not correspond precisely with the divisions of rhetoric into invention, style, and arrangement. The poem's 'inner ideas' are understood or grasped through the topics of invention (the person and the act), and the treatise explains how they assume literary form.
