Theory of Prominence - Bryan Hayslett - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Theory of Prominence - Bryan Hayslett - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Many twentieth and twenty-first century composers have written music with rhythmic structures that must be understood through a framework distinct from even, periodic meter, which has been a salient musical feature of Western classical music for centuries. This Element''s analytical system outlines structure and phrasing in sections of music without even perceptible meter. Instead of entrainment to meter, Bryan Hayslett theorizes that listeners perceive rhythm in similar ways to how they perceive the rhythm of language. With gesture as the smallest organizational grouping unit, his analytical system combines Fred Lerdahl and Ray Jackendoff''s generative theory of tonal music with Bruce Hayes''s metrical stress theory from linguistics. The listener perceives the shape of a gesture according to the structure of its constituents, and larger-level phrasing is perceived through the hierarchical relationship of gestures. After developing a set of rules, the author provides analyses that outline temporal structure according to perceptual prominence.

The Evolution of Verse Structure in Old and Middle English Poetry - Geoffrey (brown University Russom - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Evolution of Verse Structure in Old and Middle English Poetry - Geoffrey (brown University Russom - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

In this fascinating study, Geoffrey Russom traces the evolution of the major English poetic traditions by reference to the evolution of the English language, and considers how verse forms are born, how they evolve, and why they die. Using a general theory of poetic form employing universal principles rooted in the human language faculty, Russom argues that certain kinds of poetry tend to arise spontaneously in languages with identifiable characteristics. Language changes may require modification of metrical rules and may eventually lead to extinction of a meter. Russom''s theory is applied to explain the development of English meters from the earliest alliterative poems in Old and Middle English and the transition to iambic meter in the Modern English period. This thorough yet accessible study provides detailed analyses of form in key poems, including Beowulf and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and a glossary of technical terms.

Reconstructing Alliterative Verse - Ian (loyola University Cornelius - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Reconstructing Alliterative Verse - Ian (loyola University Cornelius - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

The poetry we call ''alliterative'' is recorded in English from the seventh century until the sixteenth, and includes Caedmon''s ''Hymn'', Beowulf, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and Piers Plowman. These are some of the most admired works of medieval English literature, and also among the most enigmatic. The formal practice of alliterative poets exceeded the conceptual grasp of medieval literary theory; theorists are still playing catch-up today. This book explains the distinctive nature of alliterative meter, explores its differences from subsequent accentual-syllabic forms, and advances a reformed understanding of medieval English literary history. The startling formal variety of Piers Plowman and other Middle English alliterative poems comes into sharper focus when viewed in diachronic perspective: the meter was in transition; to understand it, we need to know where it came from and where it was headed at the moment it died out.
