Paperback. Condición: Very Good. From the former U.S. Poet Laureate, Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winner, an illuminating dissection of poetic form and an essential book on writing craft for students, enthusiasts, and newcomers alikeA Little Book on Form brilliantly synthesizes Hass?s formidable gifts as both a poet and essayist. In it he takes up the central tension between poetry as genre and the poetics of the imagination. A wealth of vocabulary exists with which to talk about formal poetry. But the more intuitive, creative parts of a poet?s work and processes?the core of creative writing?are more elusive: if the most interesting aspect of form is the shaping power of the essential, expressive gestures inside it, how do we come to a language in which to speak about form as the search for the radiant shapes? the wholeness or brokenness?we experience inside powerful works of art? In suggestive, informal ?notes,? Haas thinks through the idea of a poem from its barest building blocks?from the single poetic line to foundational stanzas?to the complex villanelle and sonnet, and beyond them, to the grand forms of elegy and ode through which poets across human cultures have investigated the shapes of grieving and desiring. His approach to poetics singularly employs postmodern perspectives on shape, thought, feeling, content, and movement, calling on Catullus and Allen Ginsberg, Kobayashi Issa and Czeslaw Milosz. Begunb as a project for students of poetry and those in poetry MFA programs, A Little Book on Form is anything but?Hass investigates the ancient roots of the poetic impulse, taking a wide-ranging look at the most intense experience of human thought and feeling in language.Robert Hass demystifies the architecture of poetry, from the inside out.Organic Form: Trace the evolution of a poem from its foundational unit?the single line?through couplets, tercets, and quatrains to understand how shape emerges from impulse.Blank Verse: Explore the unrhymed pentameter that shaped centuries of English literature, from Shakespeare?s plays to the meditative poems of Wordsworth and Wallace Stevens.Free Verse: Understand the innovative potential of verse liberated from meter, with close readings of modern masters from Walt Whitman to William Carlos Williams.Literary Criticism: Delve into a career?s worth of wisdom from a master poet and essayist, presented in a uniquely accessible and informal ?notes? format.…
