内容説明
How do we read a poem? How is reading a poem different from reading a novel or a newspaper? And in fact, what is a poem? Looking at poetry as a genre rather than at individual authors or periods, this introduction provides a comprehensive approach to studying poems. Beginning with the formal aspects of poetry (metre, rhythm, rhyme), the text proceeds to give an overview of the fundamental critical issues and theoretical approaches to reading poetry, before concluding with an examination of the relation between poetry and other media, for example, poetry as music, poetry and painting, and so on. Taking a hands-on approach, each chapter works through a chosen poem illustrating specific points, before broadening its discussion into wider literary issues. The text refers to a range of poetry - from Blake and Shelley to Larkin and Plath - and provides suggestions for further reading and a glossary of terms.

内容説明
How do we read a poem? How is reading a poem different from reading a novel or a newspaper? And in fact - what is a poem? 'Studying Poetry' helps the reader to understand and appreciate poetry as a genre, to develop an informed and articulate response to the individual poem, and to become aware of the larger concerns involved in reading poetry. The book is divided into three parts. The first, 'Form and Meaning', deals with the formal characteristics of poetry, such as metaphor, symbol, image, metre, rhythm and rhyme. The second, 'Critical Approaches', explores the relation between reading poetry and key concepts in critical theory, focusing on the poem as object, the idea of the author and the role of the reader. In part three, "Interpreting Poetry", the discussion broadens out to explore issues to do with political poetry, the poem in history and the limits of poetry. 'Studying Poetry' is refreshingly free of jargon and is both informative and accessible. This is a helpful, well-focused and compact guide which also shows the theoretical assumptions in reading poetry. The book refers to a wide range of poetry and poets and offers stimulating readings of individual poems.
