The Hague: Mouton, 1955; 2nd rev. ed. 1965. pp. 21229. Compares and contrasts the positions of the Formalists (chiefly Jakobson and Tomaevskij) and the Symbolists (chiefly Belyj) on verse-structure, the former taking the general view that rhythmic variations forestall monotony ("automatization") and create a contrapuntal tension against the metrical paradigms, the latter believing rhythm to be a wider and deeper concept than meter, so that through variation rhythm can in fact "triumph" over meter. Too, the Formalists were willing to throw over altogether the basic metrical unit, the "foot," as "the weakest aspect of the old metrics," turning instead to the line, and also to a "phonemic prosody" which embraced meaning as well as pattern. Their central focus on meaning also extended into researches on "sound-repetitions," intonation-patterns in verse, phonetic gesturing, and the semantics of rhyme. Thus the Formalists pursued the study of verse-structure primarily for its illumination of poetic semantics. Useful footnotes. L1248 Folejewski, Zbigniew. "Dynamic or Static?

A short article dense in implication: Gldi reinforces John Hollander's concept of the "metrical emblem"--the meter as revelatory of the poet's "attitude," or tone--by pointing up the importance of the iambic meters in the West. In Eastern Europe, he notes, it was necessary to introduce these meters deliberately, whereas they had existed in the Orient beyond memory. And in the Enlightenment, although the languages of the Ancients and Moderns clashed, one could tell much about a poet by his choice of verseforms. Altogether, Gldi

The Structure of the Artistic Text. Tr. by Ronald Vroon. Michigan Slavic Contributions, no. 7. Ann Arbor: University of Michigan, 1977.

A shorter chapter 7 treats phonological sequencing and syntax. Consider: "an artistic device is not a material element, but a relation."

Yale Russian and East European Studies, no. 13. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1977. pp. 11633. In this important essay Mukarovsky identifies "the indispensable and basic [factor] for the formation of the verse configuration" as intonation, and specifically the superimposition of the rhythmical intonation upon the semantic one-i.e., the Line against the Sentence. The primary differentia of verse, then, is "the duality of the intonational scheme." Poetry creates its effect, that is, by a compounding of verbal systems. -----. On Poetic Language. Ed. and trans. by John Burbank and Peter Steiner. Lisse: Peter de Ridder Press, 1976. Rpt. as ch. 1 of his The Word and Verbal Art (L1341). The possibilities for the realization of phonological components in poetry lie in its "speech sound organization of the utterance, intonation, force of exhalation, tone of voice, and tempo. . . . each of these is predetermined to a different extent by the text." Metrical pauses should not be marked. Nabokov, Vladimir. Notes on Prosody, and Abram Gannibal. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1964. 167 pp. "Notes" was originally published as Appendix Two of the Commentary in Nabokov's four-volume translation of Pushkin's Eugene Onegin (Bollingen Series, no. 72. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1964. Vol. 4). At the conclusion of his work, Nabokov thought it useful to provide a detailed comparison of the English and Russian iambic tetrameters, but believing (rightly) that the authoritative (and also convenient) system of English metrics had yet to be devised, he set out to write one himself, keeping simplicity as a cardinal rule. The result is an utterly odd treatise, simultaneously both invaluable and impenetrable: the insights, generalizations, and information presented are invariably accurate, astute, and important, yet they are couched in an idiosyncratic nomenclature that is obstreperous, obfuscatory, and unfamiliar. A scrutiny of the following scheme will illustrate the diremption; Nabokov is explaining the four varieties of iambic foot, using to mark metrical ictus, absence of ictus, and ' to mark "the variable word accent": (second syll. stressed) regular beat (neither syll. stressed) scud (or false pyrrhic) (first syll. stressed) tilted scud (or false trochee) (both sylls. stressed) false spondee. One can see that Nabokov considers the meter an inflexible paradigm. Of the "tilt" or "tilted scud," for example, he says, "'Hovering Accent' is ambiguous, and still more objectionable is the crude term 'trochaic substitution'. . . . It is not a substitution, but a reconciliation; the graceful submission of a noniambic word to the dominant iambic meter of the verse. . . . Only a blunt ear can perceive in it any 'irregularity of meter,' and only an old-fashioned pedant would treat it as the intrusion of another species of meter." Summaries of comparison of English and Russian iambic tetrameters, pp. 5051 and 8082. Demonstration of modulation of iambic meter in English (using Andrey Beliy's o-x system), pp. 5169.

Yearbook of the International Folk Music Council 1 (1969): 17699.

Interestingly, the accents of the dance movements often did not correspond with the accents in the music. Proxorov, A. V.
