Poem

Don Paterson is not only one of our great poets, but also an esteemed authority on the art of poetry. The Poem is a treatise on the art of poetry in three sections - one on lyric, the music of poetic speech; one on sign, and how poetry makes its unique kind of sense; and one on metre, the rhythm of the poetic line.

Don Paterson nu este doar unul dintre marii nostri poeti, ci si o autoritate stimata asupra artei poeziei. Poemul este un tratat despre arta poeziei in trei sectiuni - una despre lirica, muzica vorbirii poetice; unul pe semn, si modul in care poezia isi are un sens unic; iar unul pe metru, ritmul liniei poetice.
