The book is an exhaustive (and sometimes exhausting) defence of "all the rhythmic, phonetic, verbal, and logical devices which make poetry different from prose." According to the author, such devices are responsible for poetry's most significant effect-not pleasure or ornament or some kind of special expressivity, but the production of "alternative imaginary orders."Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Width: 14mmItem Weight: 356gAuthor: Veronica Forrest-ThomsonContributor: Gareth Farmer (Edited by)Genre: Literary CriticismRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
