The Sound of Poetry / The Poetry of Sound
Marjorie Perloff
Ranging from medieval Latin lyrics to a cyborg opera, sixteenth-century France to twentieth-century Brazil, romantic ballads to the contemporary avant-garde, this book explores such subjects as the translatability of lyric sound, the historical and cultural roles of rhyme, and the role of sound repetition in novelistic prose.
