Unlock the rhythm of repetition in Latin poetry and discover how poets shape impact through meter.

This scholarly study examines how repeated words are treated in Latin verse, with a special focus on metrical variation and its effects. Spanning authors from Plautus to Prudentius, the book analyzes why poets sometimes repeat with identical meter and other times vary the rhythm for emphasis or movement. It presents a clear framework for understanding how repetition functions as a stylistic device across centuries of Latin poetry, and it sheds light on how editors and readers can recognize deliberate metrical choices in the line.

Structured to be accessible to students and readers of classical poetry, the work blends close scanning of lines with discussions of theory and practice. It also situates repetition within broader poetic craft, showing how meter, word choice, and line arrangement collaborate to produce emphasis, coloration, or drama.

Learn how repeated words receive identical or varied metrical treatment and why editors note both approaches.

See concrete Latin examples from a wide range of poets, with attention to how repetition affects rhythm and meaning.

Explore the balance between musical pacing and textual emphasis in classical verse.

Gain a framework for analyzing metrical repetition in Latin poetry, useful for students and scholars alike.

Ideal for readers of classical philology, Latin poetry enthusiasts, and anyone curious about how technique shapes meaning in ancient verse.
