Description
The Cambridge Guide to Reading Poetry by Andrew Hodgson is a comprehensive and accessible guide to unlocking the world of poetry. This book equips readers with the skills and confidence to explore and understand poetry, considering the key questions about language, technique, feeling, and subject matter that illuminate a poem's meaning. Through a diverse range of poets writing in English, Hodgson demonstrates how their work can enrich our perception of ourselves and the world. The guide provides step-by-step guidance on how to plan, organise, and write essays, close readings, and commentaries, from initial annotation to final editing. By following this approach, readers can develop their own personal response to poetry and discover new insights into the world of literature.
