Rencontres avec la poesie : Un guide pratique pour la lecture et l'analyse du poeme

Description

Rencontres avec la poesie: un guide pratique pour la lecture et l'analyse du poeme is intended as an introduction to the world of French poetry - too often considered mysterious and inaccessible. This is a guide that helps students to practice reading and analysing poetry, and strives to meet the needs of both the student and the literature professor. This manual explains, in a clear and concise manner, the essential elements of versification: meter, rhymes, rhythms, tropes and figure rhetoric, and sonorous games. This is a guide that encourages new understanding of poetry while offering practical exercises that accompany every chapter. The examples in the book are pulled from the literature of France, and the Quebec and French-speaking world. Methods, practice, and models follow the poems and facilitate the first step to understanding French poetry for students.
