Poetry and Narrative in Performance (Language, Discourse, Society)
Description
This book uses machine data of poetry readings in a new way to discover neglected features of rhythm and intonation and to clear away some methodological problems that hamper the teaching of poetic melody. The discussion is linked to an overall theory of literary form, throwing light on the role of emotion in both poetry and narrative fiction..
