Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a scholarly examination of poetry from the perspective of two of its defining characteristics: passion and the use of imagination. The author rejects the idea of a definitive definition for poetry, proposing instead that the most helpful definitions are either grounded in the opinions of critics or the insights of poets. The author then embarks on an exploration of how poetry differs from prose and other forms of writing, arguing that its essence lies in its passionate expression delivered through imaginative language. The author further highlights how this imaginative language can take many forms including allegory, simile, and metaphor. Ultimately, the book offers profound insights into what poetry is, how it works, and what its purpose is, equipping any reader -casual or dedicated poetry enthusiast alike- with the tools to appreciate it on a deeper level. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
