Description
This workbook includes a step-by-step analysis of poetic techniques.
- ** the poetic framework (key ideas and rhythmic structure)
- ** the narrative perspective (“voice”, tone and style)
- ** the thematic fields and figurative techniques; and
- ** syntactic patterning devices.
Following model sentences, students will intuitively use analytical terminology to evaluate poetic devices. They will apply this knowledge to the poet’s views, values and multi-layered intentions.
The sample tasks and paragraph and essay plans help students construct a sharp and fluent analysis, embedding poetic techniques to improve depth of analysis.
