Modern Metrical Technique: As Illustrated By Ballad Meter, 1700-1920 (1922) by George Rippey Stewart Jr. is a comprehensive study of the use of ballad meter in poetry from the 18th to the early 20th century. The book explores the technical aspects of ballad meter, including its structure, rhythm, and rhyme scheme, and provides examples of its use in poems by well-known poets such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Robert Frost. Stewart Jr. also examines the historical context in which ballad meter was used, including its origins in traditional folk songs and its popularity in the Romantic era. He discusses the ways in which poets adapted and experimented with ballad meter to suit their own artistic purposes, and how it evolved over time to become a versatile and expressive form of poetry. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for students of poetry, as well as anyone interested in the history and technical aspects of metrical verse. With its detailed analysis and numerous examples, Modern Metrical Technique provides a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the use of ballad meter in modern poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
