The Joys of Poetic Meter, Part I:
Martin Bidney, a poet, translator, scholar, and critic who has published 33 volumes of verse, here offers on a zoom YouTube the first presentation in a two-part mini-course, "The Joys of Poetic Meter." The course, as a whole, explores the rhythmic forms of lines and stanzas from poems of the last 3000 years, including ancient Hebrew, Greek, Roman, British Renaissance, and modern French, plus poems he has written in varied beat-schemes. Readings dramatize the joy the wordsongs give, and discussions are lively.
