STRUCTURE OF POETRY

Feet ■Poetic foot: A basic repeated sequence of meter composed of two or more stressed or unstressed syllables. ■Think of the foot of a poem as the beat. ■Feet can be classified by the amount of syllables that are stressed or unstressed

Types of feet ■ Disyllables – Two syllables – Iamb: / (unstressed) x (stressed) – Pyrrhus: / (unstressed) / (unstressed) – Trochee: x (stressed) / (unstressed) – Spondee: x ( stressed) x (stressed) ■ Trisyllables – Three syllables – Tribrach: / (unstressed) / (unstressed) / (unstressed) – Dactyl: x (stressed) / (unstressed) / (unstressed) – Anapest: / (unstressed) / (unstressed) x (stressed) – Bacchius: / (unstressed) x ( stressed) x (stressed)

Poetic meter ■Meter (American spelling) or Mètre (French spelling) : Unit of measurement in science, but also in poetry. French spelling is used often as most poetic forms were developed by the French. The difference in types of meter is which syllables are accented and which are not. While meter is very close to foot, it is different in that it shows the number of feet per line. ■late 18th century: from French mètre, from Greek metron ‘measure.’

Types of meter ■One foot: Monometer ■Two feet: Dimeter ■Three feet: Trimeter ■Four feet: Tetrameter ■Five feet: Pentameter ■Six feet: Hexameter ■Seven feet: Heptameter ■Eight feet: Octameter

Poetic forms ■Along with the line structure of poems there are also content forms. There are certain poetic forms that have a specific rhyme scheme and foot/meter structure. ■Poetry can also be free-verse and have no structure or specific content ■As an art poetry should not be viewed as having rigid structure. These conventions of poetry are simply academic short hand that ease the communication of certain trends within the poetic form. Think of tools used for discussing the trade.

Some examples of poetic form ■Limericks - A short sometimes vulgar, humorous poem consisting of five anapestic lines. Lines 1, 2, and 5 have seven to ten syllables, rhyme and have the same verbal rhythm. The 3rd and 4th lines have five to seven syllables, rhyme and have the same rhythm. ■Haiku - A Japanese poem composed of three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five morae, usually containing a season word. ■Ballad - A poem that tells a story similar to a folk tale or legend which often has a repeated refrain. ■Elegy - A sad and thoughtful poem about the death of an individual ■Ode - A lengthy lyric poem typically of a serious or meditative nature and having an elevated style and formal stanza structure. ■Sonnet - A lyric poem that consists of 14 lines which usually have one or more conventional rhyme schemes.

Some other vocabulary ■Ekphrasis – vivid poetic description of a scene or a character. ■Lines - a unit of language into which a poem or play is divided, which operates on principles which are distinct from and not necessarily coincident with grammatical structures, such as the sentence or clauses in sentences. ■Stanza - a grouped set of lines within a poem, usually set off from other stanzas by a blank line or indentation. ■Cantos – a principal form of division in a long poem. The use of the canto was described in the 1911 edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica as " a convenient division when poetry was more usually sung by the minstrel to his own accompaniment than read"
