This volume contains the remarkable PhD thesis submitted by Crozier
in 1972, and for which his external examiner was J.H. Prynne-whose
comments on the thesis are also included here, as an afterword. "My
intention in writing this thesis has been to cast some light on the
prima facie case that free verse, in abandoning the exercise of
metre, has abandoned that principle of restraint upon which the
creation of artistic form depends. This point of view contrasts
with a general contention on the part of the exponents of free
verse that their works possess form which is not only unique but
which also bears an immediate relation to the significance of the
work, a relationship felt to be 'musical', although not in any
directly analogical sense."
