A Poet's Guide to Poetry, Second Edition (Chicago… par Mary Kinzie
A comprehensive guide with an approach topoetics that is refreshing and proctical. The sounds and rhythms of poetry are discussed along with other concepts. This is a text that can be studied and also used as an ongoing reference for lovers of poetry.
Three or four readings indeed. I spent a whole summer with this work a few years ago and am thinking of repeating the experience. Brilliant, yes, and erudite and captivating and challenging.
This is, certainly, more of a textbook than anything else. Mary Kinzie was my professor at Northwestern where I majored in Poetry, and I can tell you she is brilliant, and well-spoken, and this book will plunge you head-first into the world of studying poetry, and will give you an excellent basis of information.
A fine resource for poets. It is not something one can just read through. The text sometimes deserves three or four readings.
