Michael D. Hurley and Michael O'Neill offer a perceptive and
illuminating look into poetic form, a topic that has come back into
prominence in recent years. Building on this renewed interest in
form, Hurley and O'Neill provide an accessible and comprehensive
introduction that will be of help to undergraduates and more
advanced readers of poetry alike. The book sees form as neither
ornamenting nor mimicking content, but as shaping and animating it,
encouraging readers to cultivate techniques to read poems as poems.
Lively and wide-ranging, engaging with poems as aesthetic
experiences, the book includes a long chapter on the elements of
form that throws new light on troubling terms such as rhythm and
metre, as well as a detailed introduction and accessible,
stimulating chapters on lyric, the sonnet, elegy, soliloquy,
dramatic monologue and ballad and narrative.
