{"product_id":"by-design-anne-ferry-9780804757997","title":"By Design: Intention in Poetry","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBy Design\u003c\/i\u003e is a study in the workings of conscious intention as evidenced in such elements of poetic design as rhyme, choice of title, the revision process, and the reinterpretation of a key word, figure, or narrative situation from earlier poems. Through a series of intensely scrutinized examples drawn from the Renaissance through the twentieth century, Anne Ferry celebrates the ever-changing vitality of the act of writing poems within the constraints, pressures, and urgings of history. In every instance, something startlingly and significantly new takes place because of the high degree of conscious awareness with which such poets as Sidney, Shakespeare, Herbert, Wordsworth, Stevens, Williams, Frost, Ashbery read one another--and, in some cases, themselves--exploring and reinterpreting one another's vocabularies and ways of working in order to carry out their designs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anne Ferry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804757992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804757997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChronicle of Higher Education\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/05\/2008 pg. 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2009 pg. 293","brand":"Anne Ferry","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45481730801919,"sku":"9780804757997","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d6359a81-8f15-467c-bd8a-c355b9f30ee8.jpg?v=1715987505","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/by-design-anne-ferry-9780804757997","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
