Description
Structure & Surprise: Engaging Poetic Turns offers a unique approach to analyzing poetry by focusing on its structure, rather than its forms or genres. Michael Theune's innovative concept helps students, teachers, and writers to uncover the underlying connections between different types of poetry and literary eras.
The book explores various poetic structures, including the mid-course turn, elegy, ironic, concessional, emblem, and retrospective-prospective forms. It also features 14 contemporary poets who provide examples of their work and offer commentary on their own writing. This insightful guide provides a valuable tool for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of poetry.
