They begin by showing the value of performing any poem aloud, so that we can sense its unique use of rhythm. From this starting point they suggest an entirely fresh, jargon-free approach to reading poetry. Illustrating their 'beat\/offbeat' method with a series of exercises, they help readers to appreciate the use of rhythm in poems of all periods and to understand the vital relationship between meter and meaning.\u003cbr\u003eBeginning with the very basics, \u003cem\u003eMeter and Meaning\u003c\/em\u003e enables a smooth progression to an advanced knowledge of poetic rhythms. It is the essential guide to meter for anyone who wants to study, write, better appreciate, or simply enjoy poetry. Carper and Attridge make studying meter a pleasure and reading poetry a revelation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThomas Carper is the author of three volumes of metrical poetry including \u003cem\u003eDistant Blue\u003c\/em\u003e, recipient of the 2003 Richard Wilbur Award, \u003cem\u003eFiddle Lane\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eFrom Nature\u003c\/em\u003e.
