The book discusses poetic meter, and may be the only source you need. McAuley devotes a short chapter to versification based on accent, syllable count, free verse and \"classical\" meters, but the book as a whole focuses on metrical verse and its constant reference back to stress in normal speech-it suceeds in showing meterical verse as a natural outgrowth of what we do naturally. This dispels quickly any sense of the esoteric-poetry is of and for people in general not for a special literati. After establishing meter in the normal sphere of speech, McAuley then discusses how abstract meterical patterns are actually applied and how variety is added to avoid a sing-song effect.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51875713483040,"sku":"NEW087013096X","price":13.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71bAIQBimqL.jpg?v=1781752500","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/versification-a-short-introduction-087013096x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
