Acclaimed poet and critic James Longenbach shows how a poet may manipulate these most basic elements of diction and syntax to create voice, image, tone, or song, and bring a poem to life. Why does a great lyric poem ask to be reread, even after we know it by heart?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eHow Poems Get Made\u003c\/em\u003e, Longenbach answers this question by discussing a wide spectrum of exemplary poems, from Shakespeare through Dickinson, Stevens, and Moore, to a variety of poets making poems today. \u003cem\u003eHow Poems Get Made\u003c\/em\u003e is the perfect guide both in the classroom and beyond. Longenbach's clear, wise lessons are essential to anyone interested in composing or appreciating a poem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Longenbach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
