Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of verse, exploring the hidden rules and principles that govern its construction. The author aims to demonstrate how the technical aspects of poetry can be analyzed and understood through a systematic approach, much like a painter or musician would approach their craft. The book focuses on the rhythmic element of poetry, specifically "Synectic," a term coined by the author to describe the continuous flow and connection of sound and meaning within a verse. This book offers a refreshing perspective on verse by moving beyond traditional prosodic analysis and introducing a new framework for understanding how sounds, words, and ideas interact to create a coherent and impactful poetic experience. The author's meticulous analysis of specific poems, particularly those translated from Latin and German, demonstrates the importance of considering not only the grammatical structure of a poem but also the nuanced interplay of its sounds and rhythms. Through detailed examples and insightful commentary, this book reveals the richness and complexity of poetic language, offering a deeper understanding of the art of versification and the profound artistry involved in crafting truly great poetry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330642986_0
