    Paperback (Leopold Classic Library, Dec. 25, 2015)
    About the Book Poetry is a literary form that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language (e.g. phonaesthetics, sound symbolism, and metre) to enhance the prosaic ostensible meaning, or generate an alternative meaning. Poetry uses numerous devices such as assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia and rhythm are sometimes used to achieve musical or incantatory effects. Poetry's long history dates back to prehistorical times ehen hunting poetry was created in Africa.Also in this Book Poetry as an art form predates written text, with the earliest poetry having been recited or sung, and employed as a way of remembering oral history. The oldest examples of epic poetry include the Epic of Gilgamesh from Bablylon and the Greek epics The Iliad and The Odyssey, and the Indian Sanskrit epics of Ramayana and Mahabharata. The longest epic poems in history were the Mahabharata and the Tibetan Epic of King Gesar. Aristotle's Poetics considered that there were three genres of poetry—the epic, the comic, and the tragic. Later aestheticians identified: epic poetry, lyric poetry, and dramatic poetry. One of the most popular form since the Late Middle Ages, is the sonnet, which by the 13th century had become standardized as fourteen lines following a set rhyme scheme. The form had crystallized further by the 14th century and the Italian Renaissance, under the guidance of Petrarch.And in this Book Poetry anthologies with multiple authors are collections of poems of a number of poets that have been gathered by a compiler, and published in a single volume, or series of volumes. These anthologies are rarely random, and more likely to be themed in the manner of "Best American Poetry" and the like.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades.

    Paperback (Ulan Press, Aug. 31, 2012)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, Sept. 16, 2017)
    Excerpt from Plays for Poem-MimesPlays for Poem - Mimes might be defined as panto mime acting or dancing of folk or automatons to an accompaniment of rhythmic lines, in place of music. In view of the fact that in all these experiments the characters speak (with the exception of the children in W hen The W illow N ads, the wife in Jack's H ouse, and the shadows in Blue and Green), little'more than a semi-dance of gesture can be added by them to their delivery of the lines, but free dancing might be in dulged during the interludes of silence. It is impera tive that the reading tempo and the introduction of pantomiming shall adhere to the sense connotation rather than the rhythm of the lines. I have to make this small excursion into the realm of professorial instruction because the good people who have been kind as well as the good people Who have been un kind to what is commonly and erroneously termed, free verse, have slipped into the error of scanning rather than of feeling the line divisions I offered in Mush rooms. If homogeneity of some sort exists in the present experiments, possibly it runs through the gen eral undercurrent Which carries words, silences and pantomiming along, the musician's term for which is organ-point. I duly urge my apology for these ejacu lations - especially as that benign entity, contradiction between an author's preface and production, is cer.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
