Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the nature of poetry, challenging conventional views that it is merely a form of emotional expression or a collection of beautiful words. The author argues that paradox is central to poetic language and that the power of poetry lies in its ability to express profoun…d truths through seemingly contradictory statements. The author traces the use of paradox in poetry through the ages, examining the works of poets like William Wordsworth, Pope, Blake, and Coleridge. The author asserts that poetry is ultimately concerned with a deeper understanding of human experience, and that paradox is an essential tool for poets to access this understanding. He also explores the connection between myth and poetry, arguing that myths are not simply quaint stories but rather expressions of a shared consciousness that binds humanity together and gives meaning to the world. The author suggests that the decline of myth in modern culture is responsible for a decline in the quality of poetry, leaving poets with a fragmented world view and limited artistic possibilities. Ultimately, this book offers a unique and insightful perspective on the power of poetic language and its ability to illuminate fundamental truths about our shared human experience.
