The Art of Syntax: Rhythm of Thought, Rhythm of Song

The Art of Syntax: Rhythm of Thought, Rhythm of Song

With intelligence and precision, Ellen Bryant Voigt parses out the deft and alluring shape of poetic language in The Art of Syntax. Through brilliant readings of poems by Bishop, Frost, Kunitz, Lawrence, and others, Voigt examines the signature musical scoring writers deploy to orchestrate meaning. â€œThis structureâ€”this architectureâ€”is the essential drama of the poemâ€™s composition,â€ she argues. The Art of Syntax is an indispensable book on the writerâ€™s craft by one of Americaâ€™s best and most influential poets and teachers.
