1 Defining Poetry and Characteristics of Poetry Poetry 1 -Ni Wayan Swardhani W
2 POETRY a universal phenomenon --- exists along human s civilization from primitive to developed nation from spell to drive away evil soul to conventional one (from oral to written) enjoyed by everyone entertainment and understanding never dies
3 To fully understand Poetry, we first must be fluent with its meter, rhyme, and figures of speech. Then ask two questions; one, how are fully the objective of the poem have been rendered, and two, how important is the objective. Question one rates the poem s perfection, question two rates its importance. And once these questions have been answered, turning the poem s greatness into relatively simple matter. Cont...
4 If the poem scores for perfection is 5 on the horizontal of the graph and its importance is platted on its vertical, then calculating the total area of the poem yields the measure of its greatness. A sonnet by Byron might score high on the vertical, but only average on the horizontal. A Shakespearean sonnet on the other hand would score high both horizontally and vertically. Yielding the massive total area thereby revealing the poem to be truly great. (Dr. J. Evans Prichard, PhD.) (20:20 20: 35)

6 The Definition of Poetry The kind of thing poets write (Robert Frost) The spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings (William Wordsworth) The recollection of an emotion, which causes a new emotion (William Wordsworth)
7 Poetry is feeling confessing itself to itself, in moments of solitude (John Stuart Mill) When we read a poem something happens within us. They bring to life a group of images, feelings, and thoughts (Stageberg & Anderson) Poetry is simply the most beautiful, impressive, and widely effective mode of saying things (Mathew Arnold)
8 Poetry teaches the enormous forces of a few words (R.W. Emerson) Poetry is the art of uniting pleasure with truth by calling imagination to help reason (Samuel Johnson) Poetry is the record of the best and happiest moments of the happiest and best mind (Percey Bysche Shelley)
9 HOW TO READ POETRY? Read it more than once don t scan or skim you won t get it Use standardized dictionary Don t stop at every line line sentence be careful at stopping run on-line or end stopped line? Read the poetry aloud to determine its rhythm related to tone and theme use English accent instead of Indonesian
10 Now, let s go check your book on page 1
11 Prosody the pronunciation of a song or poem the general word describing the study of poetic sounds and rhythm Prosody = versification (the study of the structure of a verse), mechanics of verse, and music of poetry.
12 poetry often requires a regular beat, an appropriate speed and expressiveness of delivery just like music they help the poets convey the meanings of their words or facilitate the readers to understand the ideas, the emotions the poets communicate through their words. the analysis of a poem s prosodic technique cannot be separated from that of its content.
13 Rhytm created by the pattern of repeated sounds in terms of both duration and quality and ideas a combination of vocal speeds, rises and falls, starts and stops, vigor and slackness, and relaxation and tension
14 Rhythm is significant because poets invite the readers to change speeds while reading to slow down and linger or pass rapidly over some words and sounds or to give more or less vocal stress or emphasis on certain syllables. All these are related to emotions that are charged in the poem.
15 Scansion the act of scanning a poem to discover how the poem establishes a metrical pattern which syllables are accented (receive stress) and which are not (receive no stress). the accented syllables are usually indicated by a prime mark or acute accent ( / ) the unaccented ones are marked with a bowllike half circle called a breve ( )
16
17 Metrical Feet Poetic foot a line of a poem seems to be divided into a number of repeated units combining the same number of accented and unaccented syllables. A pattern of one foot is repeated or varied in the entire poem, the pattern for the poem is established To separate one foot from another, a slash (/) is used.
18 The Iamb Adjective: iambic; consisting of 1 unaccented syllable followed by 1 accented syllable (Wordsworth, The World Is Too Much with Us)
19 The Trochee Adjective: trochaic; consisting of 1 accented syllable followed by 1 unaccented syllable (Donne, Song)
20 The Spondee Adjective: spondaic; consisting of 2 accented syllables
21 The Anapest Adjective: anapestic; consisting of 2 unaccented syllables followed by 1 accented syllable (Key, Defence of Fort McHenry)
22 The Dactyl Adjective: dactylic; consisting of 1 accented syllable followed by 2 unaccented syllable (Swinburne, Songs before Sunrise)
23 The Pyrrhic 2 unaccented syllables (Tennyson, In Memoriam)
24 The Metrical Line the number of feet contained in a line Number of feet in a line Name of line 1 Monometer 2 Dimeter 3 Trimeter 4 Tetrameter 5 Pentameter 6 Hexameter 7 Heptameter 8 Octameter
25 The Caesura The pause in a line, which is often best discovered by reading the poem aloud. The pause is not necessarily punctuated. The caesura can be marked with (//). Example: Milton! // Thou shouldst be living at this hour. (Wordsworth, London, 1802)
26 End-stopped line A line of poetry that naturally pauses at the end of the line (when it shows a complete clause or sentence) It is the opposite of run-on line, where readers should not stop but read through to the next line.
27 End-stopped line: My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun. Coral is far more red than her lips red. (Shakespeare, Sonnet 130) Run-on lines: Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds Or bends with the remover to remove.... (Shakespeare, Sonnet 116)
28 Rhyme the identical final syllables of words may appear in two successive lines, in alternating lines, or at intervals of four, five, or more lines if rhyming sounds are too far away from each other, they lose their immediacy and effectiveness.
29 Functions: delight strengthens a poem s psychological impact support memorization on the poem How to describe rhyme scheme: the first sound at the end of a line a, the next is b, then c, d, and so on. when a sound reappear use the same letter to label the sound
30 Can you decide the rhyme scheme? I thought of Thee, my partner and my guide, As being past away. -Vain sympathies! For backward, Duddon! as I cast my eyes, I see what was, and is, and will abide; Still glides the Stream, and shall not cease to glide; The Form remains, the Function never dies; While we, the brave, the mighty, and the wise, We Men, who in our morn of youth defied The elements, must vanish; -be it so! Enough, if something from our hands have power To live, and act, and serve the future hour; And if, as toward the silent tomb we go, Through love, through hope, and faith's transcendent dower, We feel that we are greater than we know. (Alfred Lord Tennyson After Thought)
31 Variations of Rhymes Perfect rhyme and half rhyme Perfect rhymes the stressed vowel following sounds are identical slow - grow, fleet - street, or buying crying Half rhymes the final consonant sounds of the words are identical, but the vowels are different, creating similar but not identical sounds quietness - express
32 Masculine and feminine rhyme Masculine rhyme the final syllables of the rhyming words are stressed inquired desired. Feminine rhyme the rhyming of stressed syllables followed by identical unstressed syllables flowers bowers.
33 Internal rhyme the rhyming words are found within the line, often a word in the middle of a line rhyming with the last word or sound of the line. Small feet were pattering, wooden shoes clattering, (Browning, The Pied Piper of Hamelin)
34 Alliteration the identical consonant sounds that start several words that are close to each other For winter's rains and ruins are over, And all the season of snows and sins; The days dividing lover and lover, The light that loses, the night that wins; (Swinburne, Chorus from Atalanta)
35 Slant Rhyme Assonance the repetition of identical vowel sounds in different words that are close to one another bird and thirst identical /er/ sound Consonance words have the same consonants but not the same vowel sounds pat and pit
36 Onomatopoeia a blend of consonant and vowel sounds designed to imitate or suggest a situation or action the use of word which sound suggests its meaning buzz, crackle, hum, etc. Blank verse unrhymed iambic pentameter Shakespeare s plays and Milton s Paradise Lost
37 Free verse free of the traditional patterns of lines and meter the rhythm is based on the stress resulting from the meaning of the line and its natural and punctuated pauses
38 After the Sea-Ship after the whistling winds; After the white-gray sails, taut to their spars and ropes, Below, a myriad, myriad waves, hastening, lifting up their necks, Tending in ceaseless flow toward the track of the ship: Waves of the ocean, bubbling and gurgling, blithely prying, Waves, undulating waves liquid, uneven, emulous waves, Toward that whirling current, laughing and buoyant, with curves, Where the great Vessel, sailing and tacking, displaced the surface; (After the Sea-Ship by Walt Whitman )
39 Stanzaic Forms a stanza is a group of lines in a poem. ordinarily, each stanza follows a particular rhyme scheme
40 Some common stanzaic forms: Couplet a stanza of two lines which usually rhymes Triplet/tercet a stanza of three lines Quatrain a stanza of four lines Sestet a stanza of six lines Rhyme royal a stanza of seven lines written in iambic pentameter and rhyming ababbcc Octave a stanza of eight lines
41 Sonnet a stanza of 14 lines perfect example of close relationship of form and content in poetry Italian sonnet an octave (rhyming abba,abba) and a sestet (rhyming cde, cde (or its variations) or cd,cd,cd). the octave 1 idea, the sestet the example octave a problem, the sestet the solution English/Shakespearian sonnets 3 quatrains and 1 couplet (abab, cdcd, efef, gg). three arguments concerning with its theme in the three quatrains and draw a conclusion in the couplet
42 Spenserian stanza Edmund Spenser 9 lines the first eight are iambic pentameter followed by a single alexandrine, a twelve-syllable iambic line. the final line typically has a caesura, or break, after the first three feet the stanza rhymes ababbcbcc the Spenserian stanza is regarded as "one of the most remarkably original metric innovations in the history of English verse" (Preminger 807)
43 A gentle knight was pricking on the plaine, Ycladd in mightie armes and silver shielde, Wherein old dints of deepe woundes did remaine, The cruell markes of many a bloody fielde; Yet armes till that time did he never wield: His angry steede did chide his foaming bitt, As much disdayning to the curbe to yield: Full jolly knight he seemed, and faire did sitt, As one for knightly jousts and fierce encounters fitt. (Spencer, The Faerie Quenne)
44 Ottava rima an Italian form that originated in thirteenthcentury religious and minstrel poetry 8 lines of iambic pentameter rhyme scheme "abababcc" Let s check the example in your book on page 6
45 Analysing Daffodils Written in 1804 First published in 1807 in Poems in Two Volumes revised version in 1815 Inspired by the moment when William Wordsworth was strolling along Glencoyne Bay, Ullswater in the Lake District with his sister, Dorothy in April 15, 1802
46 Four six-lines stanzas Iambic tetrameter ABABCC rhyme scheme
