One can not understand the language of poetry, not knowing what the verse

wonder Nick Turbine know what a stanza or syllabic-tonic when the children of her mouth poured verses - adults, sad, filled not childhood experiences?Unlikely.Yes, she did not need to, like Pushkin in the early poetic experiments.Like other prominent poets.But they were geniuses, their gift was born with them, but even they have studied the technique of versification and its laws.This is even more necessary for us, "not geniuses."To poetry could reach the mind and heart, you need to learn to read, perceive, understand lyrical work.From poetry we wait for the turbulence caused by the coupling of sounds, words, images, rhythms and meanings that create a lyrical experience, for which we discover and collections of poetry.And the one who really loves poetry, can not help but wonder, how to create a poetic wonder.What is the verse, if such ordinary words collected in slim-line verses and are able to touch the deepest strings of the soul?And the language of poetry, perhaps, the most difficult form of existence of the language and need to learn to understand it.But how?

How to "do" the verses?

Modern psychology recognizes the most effective way to work, an adequate one that is embedded in the object under study.If so, from the recipient (the one who receives), poems require the same creative work of the imagination and the active involvement of emotions, as well as from its creator.So, if you want to understand poetry, we must try to write poetry.But first you need to know, from what and how "make poetry" that is a stanza, rhyme, rhythm, and other subtleties "stihopleteniya."By the way, some types of verses, as are poetry, the authors have, that is specially designed poets.Known in the literature Spenserian stanza, Byron octave Onegin stanza, Terzetto.All names but the last name of the author is guessed.But Dante, who invented Terzetto for "Divine Comedy" in the form as we know it today, deserves to have his name sounded.Dante's invention - a stanza of three poems (verse - line) that rhyme scheme: 1 and 3 lines rhyme with each other, the second - with the following first and third stanzas, then everything is repeated.Look at the example from the poem: It should be noted that not all three-line stanza called terza rima (so-called differently Terzetto).The Japanese haiku poetry there.It is also three lines, but there is no rhyme.Fixed number of lines but also has the octave (8), quatrain (4) distihom (2) and monostich (1).

not say "praise"!

concluding our little exercise, we emphasize once again its main idea: to open the meaning of the poetic work is impossible without revealing the peculiarities of the art form in which that meaning is embodied - poetic compositions (stanza).Rights Lotman, arguing that even a simplified "schematic description of the general structural regularities" longer offer us the originality and beauty of the lyric lines than repetition laudatory phrases about their genius.After all, no matter how much say "paste" (It is appropriate to "praise"), is not sweet.
