In spite of debatable issues, such as metre, we now know enough
about classical Hebrew poetry to be able to understand how it was
composed. This large-scale manual, rich in detail, exegesis and
bibliography, provides guidelines for the analysis and appreciation
of Hebrew verse. Topics include oral poetry, metre, parallelism and
forms of the strophe and stanza. Sound patterns and imagery are
also discussed. A lengthy chapter sets out a whole range of other
poetic devices and the book closes with a set of worked examples of
Hebrew poetry. Throughout, other ancient Semitic verse has been
used for comparison and the principles of modern literary criticism
have been applied.
