Marlowe and Shakespeare Verse and Prose

Do you speak verse or prose? QIg QIg 4 min

Prose Prose refers to ordinary speech with no regular pattern of accentual rhythm. used whenever verse would seem bizarre – Ex. Madness in Macbeth – Low comedy – Serious letters (Lady Macbeth) – When characters are cynical, rational, sharing common sense or very irrational. – Relaxed conversation

Meter: a recognizable rhythm in a line of verse consisting of a pattern of regularly recurring stressed and unstressed syllables. Foot/feet – a metric "foot" refers to the combination of a strong stress and the associated weak stress (or stresses) that make up the recurrent metric unit of a line of verse.

Iambic Pentameter a particular type of metric "foot" consisting of two syllables, an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable ("da DUM"); the opposite of a "troche." U/U/U/U/U/ "The course of true love never did run true" (MND I.i.134). da DUM da DUM da DUM da DUM da DUM the COURSE of TRUE love NEver DID run TRUE).

Troche the opposite of an iamb a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed syllable ("DA dum"). /U "Double, double, toil and trouble;/ Fire burn and caldron bubble" (MAC IV.i.10-11). DA dum DA dum DA dum DA dum DOUble DOUble TOIL and TROUble).

Verse poetry: literature in metrical form – Rhyming verse – Blank verse

Rhyming Verse usually in rhymed couplets – two successive lines of verse of which the final words rhyme with another – Pattern is usually aa bb cc etc Helena's lament in A Midsummer Night's Dream (I.i.234-9): Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; ("a" rhyme) And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind. ("a" rhyme) Nor hath Love's mind of any judgment taste; ("b" rhyme) Wings, and no eyes, figure unheedy haste: ("b" rhyme) And therefore is Love said to be a child, ("c" rhyme) Because in choice he is so oft beguiled. ("c" rhyme)

RHYME often used for ritualistic or choral effects and for highly lyrical or sententious passages that give advice or point to a moral – Witches in Macbeth
