Patterns of Poetry
Author: Miller Williams
Publisher: LSU Press
ISBN: 9780807113301
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Miller Williams’ Patterns of Poetry is an encyclopedia of the forms used by poets throughout the history of English, from blank verse to hymnal measure, from englyn penfyr to the double dactyl, from the clerihew to the sonnet. Each form is introduced with a brief discussion of its origin, which is followed by a graphic presentation of its scansion, metrics, and rhyme scheme. Sample poems show how each form actually works. Williams begins Patterns of Poetry with an introduction entitled “Form and the Age,” in which he traces the history of form in the arts and the ways in which any form relates to the political, social, and religious temper of the period in which it becomes dominant. He then prefaces the main text with useful notes on rhyme, prosodic symbols, the major feet, metrics, and nonce forms. Also included in the book are a glossary; a bibliography; a listing of additional poems in the various patterns (poems not included in the text but of great use to teachers); an essay on the line as the prosodic unit; and an index.

Book Description
Kaiden’s world has been utterly upended. The former alcoholic turned thrall is now a vampire… with undreamed of powers. How is this possible and what does it mean? Can he be mankind’s hope to free them from their degrading servitude to their bloodsucking masters? Just what kind of vampire is he, and what are the limits of his abilities? Kaiden’s feelings for his hunter companion, Johann, have grown stronger. He knows Johann has feelings for him as well, and would gladly push their relationship to the next level. But Kaiden doesn’t dare, afraid that once he tastes Johann’s sweet, beckoning blood, he won’t be able to stop himself until it’s too late. As Kaiden and Johann scour the countryside for vampires and for answers to Kaiden’s questions, Kaiden is forced to come to some self-realizations which can either make him or break him. Is he any better than the vampiric overlords, or is he doomed to become just like them? Will the blood he needs to defeat them cause him to lose what little humanity he still possesses?
