David Robey.
Sound and Structure in the Divine Comedy
.
Oxford University Press, 2000.
214pp.
Hardback ISBN 0198184980.

Publisher's recommended price £40.00

The book makes a pioneering use of based procedures to describe and analyze the sounds of Dante's Divine Comedy. For all the force and originality of the poem's language and style, the structure and effect of its sounds have remained relatively unexplored. The study leads to a variety of new conclusions on this subject, and provides an indispensable reference tool for further work in the area. Readership: Specialists in Italian literature and in literary and linguistic computing.

Contents: 1 Introduction; 2 Alliteration and Assonance; 3 Rhyme; 4 Counting Syllables; 5 Accent; 6 Formalism, Structuralism, and Semiotics in the Criticism of the Comedy; Bibliography.
