Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of Irish versification, tracing its evolution from the ancient, rhythmical alliterative poetry of the Early Irish period to the more structured, syllabic poetry that dominated for centuries. The author offers a comprehensive overview of the principles and rules governing both alliterative and syllabic poetry, providing a framework for understanding the nuances of Irish verse. The book examines the influence of Latin hymn poetry on the development of syllabic metres in Old and Middle Irish, showcasing how a fixed number of syllables and rhyme schemes became central to the craft. The author also explores the intricate role of alliteration in Irish poetry, demonstrating how its rules and patterns evolved over time and highlighting its significance in pronunciation and the history of the language. By carefully analyzing the laws of rhyme and alliteration, the author sheds light on the complex relationship between tradition and actual pronunciation in Irish verse. This book offers a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the historical development and artistic intricacies of Irish poetry.
