Milton's Prosody by Robert Bridges is a comprehensive analysis of the rules of blank verse in the later poems of John Milton, with a particular focus on his magnum opus, Samson Agonistes. The book delves into the intricacies of Milton's prosody, exploring the poet's use of meter, rhythm, and sound to create a unique and powerful poetic style. Bridges examines the various techniques and devices that Milton employs in his verse, including enjambment, caesura, and the use of classical meters. The book also provides a detailed account of the versification of Samson Agonistes, Milton's last and arguably greatest work. Overall, Milton's Prosody is an essential resource for anyone interested in the art of poetry, as well as for scholars and students of Milton's work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
