Class Agenda & Updates What is due today? Ch 11 Poems What are our objectives today? Ch 12 Notes + Example Who has something to make up? Najay, Zahkeyah Who’s working in the WC today? Breonna

Ch 12: Rhythm & Meter RHYTHM: Any “wave-like” recurrence of motion in sound. In speech, our words “rise” and “fall” depending on words' syllables... → Accented / Stressed syllables are given more emphasis. Try saying these words out loud: toDAYtoMORrow YESterday

Ch 12: Rhythm & Meter Some poets purposefully arrange their lines to create a noticeable and repeated rhythm of sound based on these syllabic “ups” and “downs”......but we still must pay attention to meaning, as it can affect how a word sounds: Rhetorical Stress “I don’t believe you…”

Ch 12: Rhythm & Meter Rhythm is also based on PAUSES: → Punctuation → The end of a poetic line a) end-stopped line (we should pause at the end of the line) b) run-on line (the lines moves on without pause to the next line) c) caesura (pauses that occur within lines)

Ch 12: Rhythm & Meter But wait! Not all poems have a set rhythm... … these are called FREE VERSE

METER Meter: the identifying characteristic of rhythmic language that we can “tap our feet to” → Poems written in a set meter are called “metrical”

METER The basic unit of metrical verse is the FOOT A FOOT is composed of: (1) accented syllable + (1-2) unaccented syllables beforeglory intervene multiple todaydaily understand wonderful [iambic] [trochaic] [anapestic] [dactylic] *SPONDEE = two accented syllables (“football”)

METER To measure metrical verse, count the number of lines: 1 lines = monometer 2 lines = dimeter 3 lines = trimeter 4 lines = tetrameter 5 lines = pentameter 6 lines = hexameter Groups of lines = stanzas

METER So what about when the poet “breaks” the rhythm? This is known as metrical variation and it is likely intentional—and significant! 1) SUBSTITUTION (replacing the regular foot with another one) 2) EXTRAMETRICAL (extra syllables) 3) TRUNCATION (leaving out an unaccented syllable)

SCANSION The process of defining the metrical form. Let's Practice!

“Virtue” by George Herbert Stanza 1 Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright, The bridal of the earth and sky; The dew shall weep thy fall to-night, For thou must die.

“Virtue” by George Herbert Stanza 2 Sweet rose, whose hue angry and brave Bids the rash gazer wipe his eye; Thy root is ever in its grave, And thou must die.

“Virtue” by George Herbert Stanza 3 Sweet spring, full of sweet days and roses, A box where sweets compacted lie; My music shows ye have your closes, And all must die.

“Virtue” by George Herbert Stanza 4 Only a sweet and virtuous soul, Like season'd timber, never gives; But though the whole world turn to coal, Then chiefly lives.
