Unparalleled Poetry

A Cognitive Approach to the Free-Rhythm Verse of the Hebrew Bible

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Unparalleled Poetry disentangles biblical poetry from parallelism and meter and provides an account of the free-rhythm versification system of biblical poetry. This cognitive approach is oriented toward how poetic structure can be heard and perceived, and it illuminates both the structures of biblical poetry and the artistry of potential effects.
