A Study of Poetry by Bliss Perry is a comprehensive examination of the art of poetry. The book explores various aspects of poetry, including its history, structure, and meaning. It delves into the techniques used by poets to create their works of art, such as meter, rhyme, and imagery. The author also discusses the role of poetry in society and its impact on people's lives. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both scholars and general readers. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of poetry or literature in general.If all the various forms of rhyme are only different ways of emphasizing rhythm through the repetition of accordant sounds, it follows that the varying rhythmical impulses of poets and of readers will demand now a greater and now a less dependence upon this particular mode of rhythmical satisfaction. Chaucer complained of the scarcity of rhymes in English as compared with their affluence in Old French, and it is true that rhyming is harder in our tongue than in the Romance languages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
