  Metrics and versification in poetry and song: the 14th Nordic conference on metrics, 13–15 September, 2018, Stockholm, Sweden

summary:
  This is probably due to the power of the empirical events which are in the focus of attention in research where the exam- ples almost speak for themselves, whereas metrical studies at a more abstract level tend to create epistemic conflicts, between generativists and cognitivists, for instance, or between diachronic and synchronic oriented researchers. The keynote lectures pinpointed the central coordinates within the field of metrical studies, even though the most marked differences between quan- titative and qualitative approaches became visible in the paper sessions.

summary:
  The last presentation of the session, “Freedom Bound” by Johnny Edström (Stockholm University), was devoted to a detailed cognitive analysis of four poems written by Edith Södergran in metrical verse. Most, however, have chosen kinds of metrical verse that, apart from the usual licence of vary- ing clausulae, regulate the number of syllables in ways that are quite alien to the original: some translations are based on unified ten-position lines in which stresses are irregularly distributed; others, on lines divided by internal extra- metricality, with each half featuring two ictuses, a noticeable ternary rhythm and optional headlessness, or on divided lines in which each half has exactly five positions.

Assuming different performances of the enjambment, both logically accept- able response patterns support our hypothesis.

  Studia Metrica et Poetica sisu 4_1.indd Conference on Finnic runo-song tradition Janika Oras, Mari Sarv The series of biannual conferences devoted to Finnic runo-song tradition in Tartu, Estonia had its ninth event “Seven skins of runo-song: various views on Finnic song tradition” on November 30 and December 1, 2016 at the Estonian Literary Museum. Folklorists have made efforts to analyse the body of knowledge and the pieces of tradition again and again and from different angles, to reach the better understanding of the functioning of runo-song in the traditional society, but also on the reasons and ideas underneath the collection process as well as on the function of archival collections in the contemporary society.

  This current issue, which is to celebrate Oras’s 115th anniversary, is yet one more step on the journey to put Ants Oras in his right- ful place, and recognize him as a founding father of Estonian literary culture. Ants Oras belonged to the next generation of authors, but the ideas of Noor-Eesti were close to him.

Graphic translation specifically applies to visually-oriented avant-garde and experimental texts.

  Petr Plecháč (Institute of Czech Literature of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic), Klemens Bobenhausen (Pearl Communication & Consulting GmbH) and Benjamin Hammerich (ETH Zurich) presented another collaborative paper introducing a new stylometrical possibility for authorship attribution of verse texts, which has until now been limited to a few case studies. Also, a novel way of verse analysis was introduced by Evgeny Kazartsev (National Research University Higher School of Economics in St. Petersburg) who, in co-operation with Victor Vashchenkov, has developed a multifunctional program system, which, based on text prosody, allows to construct two types of probability models of versification mechanisms in different languages – either rigid (with a non- linear verse line filling) or looser (allowing a linear formation of verse lines).

  Since Russian suffixes are often stressed, and in many instances long, they can be used for disyllabic, trisyllabic, tetrasyllabic and even pentasyllabic rhymes, all of which types Pasternak makes use of to add to the richness of his sound effects and to produce those sinuous line-end rhythms which in English sel- dom occur in serious verse, largely because they tend to sound labored or savor too much of studied ingenuity. A Note on Translating Pasternak’s Verse1 Ants Oras One of the central facts about Pasternak’s verse is that it is all of a piece, but no cameo-fashion: it is intensely alive, it moves and vibrates.

However, out of six fully-stressed lines two can be considered ambiguous, and both are isomorphic with Form IV (see Figure 1).

summary:
  An interest in prosody has not characterized the last fifty years of Shakespeare studies, though there have been a few good books on the subject, notably by George T. Wright and Peter L. Groves. For example, The Merry Wives of Windsor (dated 1597) was most similar to Troilus and Cressida (1602): not only does Merry Wives contain very little verse, and the smaller the sample the greater the influence of purely random factors, but also the revised chronology of the forthcoming New Oxford Shakespeare makes the two plays adjacent.3 It would be idle to suppose that artistic change must always be a matter of steady, linear, one-way progression, but something approaching this kind of regularity evidently governed Shakespeare’s disposition of pauses within his blank verse lines.

  Abstract: In Russom (2011), I defended a universalist hypothesis that the constituents of poetic form are abstracted from natural linguistic constituents: metrical positions from phonological constituents, usually syllables; metrical feet from morphological constituents, usually words; and metrical lines from syntactic constituents, usually sentences. For analysis of iambic pentameter, I posit metrical positions abstracted from syllables, metrical feet abstracted from words, and metrical lines abstracted from sentences (Russom 2011: 353–355; Russom 2017: 22–28).1 An important corollary to my initial hypothesis is that norms for realization of a metrical constituent are abstracted from norms for the corresponding linguistic con- stituent.

Meanwhile, Kolmogorov himself wrote wrote a series of articles on Russian verse that have now (in 2015) been published in a collection edited by his frequent collaborator, Aleksandr Prokhorov.

Then, there is an ordered group of semantic oppositions which determine the gradual transition from the initial situation to its inversed form at the finality of the epic.

To understand the structural differences in the versification of Seto runosongs and laments we have compared the analysis results of lament lines with the analysis results of the line structures of the two runosong groups – the songs with a stable line length and refrain songs.

  Lines five through eight are relatively even, with the same amount of stressing on lines two, five and seven, which all tie for second in the number of stresses. This heavier stressing on the even lines further indicates that Akhmatova was creating a kind of back and forth rhythm between each pair of lines, thereby strengthening the notion that she was indeed thinking in terms of couplets – even though the use of Tak to begin line 5 and No to begin line 9 vaguely imply 4-line groupings in terms of the thematic structure.

summary:
  Russian verse theorists, who developed Andrei Belyi’s (1910) insight on the differences between the rhythm of Russian 18th and 19th century iambic tetrameter, came close to a descrip- tion of the entire history of Russian verse as a systematic evolution of many relevant parameters from one period to another. (A scholar of Russian verse may recall here Mikhail Gasparov’s similar study of the leading poet of the Russian avant-garde, entitled “Twenty versification-based textual amendments to the texts of Mayakovsky” [Gasparov 1991]).

  The work is in dac- tylic dimeter, with the contrast between the masculine and the dactylic lines creating a marked variation in line length. The innovative quality of Zhukovskij’s 9-line stanzas turns out to be indica- tive for the manner in which poets write long stanzas with an odd number of lines: the use of such stanzaic forms generally reflects an effort not so much to follow or establish a tradition as to experiment with form, to work out new rhyme schemes as well as unusual combinations of line lengths and metres.

  Th is explains the fact that in languages where syl- lables are divided into dependent and independent, the initial stage of poetry relies on counting independent syllables (tonic versifi cation). At that, it determines not only the positions in which the syllables of both types are equivalent, but also the positions in which one syllable can be replaced by other syllables, for example, in a certain position of the hexameter, two short syllables can substitute for a long syllable.

An argument is presented that North Germanic contacts also produced systematic verse-internal alliteration in Finnic languages.

summary:
  Crucially for this inconsistently alliterating passage, I follow Cornelius and others in distinguishing metrical stress assignment from the disposition of 119The Meter of the Ophni and Phineas Insertion in Piers Plowman alliteration.2 Ironies of nomenclature notwithstanding, alliteration is not a metrical entity in alliterative verse. Strange as it sounds, the separation of alliteration from metrical stress assignment in metrical theory implies the possibility of blank, that is non-allit- erating, alliterative verse (Lewis 1935: 13).

While in German and Russian poetry traditions of 18th to 19th century iambus is, first of all, iambic tetrameter, (I4) and trochee is, first of all, trochaic tetram- eter (T4), contrasting as a metre of European high culture and as a popular verse form (Gasparov 1989: 214–215), in Estonian verse, just like in English tradition, trochaic tetrameter is, in the first place, opposed to the iambic pen- tameter.

  The keynote paper by Maciej Janicki, “Text similarity and alignment in the study of Finnic oral folk poetry”, introduced the methodology for detecting similar verse lines and song texts implemented in the exploratory research environment Runoregi. Lotman & Lotman compared rhyming models by two Estonian rap artists with the ones found in Estonian literary poetry, finding rich novel rhyming strategies in Estonian rap as a result of contact with Western models.

  The program was created using Boris Tomashevsky’s method based on analyzing the punctuation at the end of poetic lines (the strength of the syntactic pause is evaluated depending on the absence or presence of a punctuation sign: i.e., a comma, a dash, a semicolon, or a full stop / question mark / exclamation mark). We applied Boris Tomashevsky’s method, which is based on analyzing the punctuation at the end of poetic lines, to a corpus of European sonnets (more than 1200 texts).

summary:
  This complementary distribution of verse types predicated on the distinction between the a-verse and the b-verse would have significant consequences on 6 We will exclude the ljóðaháttr c-verse from consideration (except in connection with the contrast with the a-/b-verse in the way marked verse types are accommodated; see section 2.2 below), as it is categorically longer than is prescribed by the four-position principle, and organised on a different formal basis (Suzuki 2014: 665–760). Such a unique com- plementary organisation of verse types on the basis of the dichotomy into the a-verse and the b-verse may provide an explanatory account of why anacrusis occurs less frequently in ljóðaháttr than in the Heliand, in which favorable con- ditions for anacrusis may apply pervasively to the whole set of verses without demonstrable distinction between the a-verse and the b-verse.

Jakubs’kyj’s book is structured around five main parts, which are: “Theory of verse rhythm”, “Classical (metric) versification”, “New (tonic) versifica- tion”, “Poetic euphony”, and “Strophics”.

  Use of proper names with skúr in the survey of Meissner (1921: 181) show only 1 among 19 examples of basic kennings (not the same as the one below), and 6 of 67 for hríð (Meissner 1921: 180), so low frequency here is not surprising in that respect. In other words, within the register, formulae and similar resources also took shape in relation to individual metres and their particular conventions.

summary:
  Line 1 is in fact trochaic, while line 2 begins with a choriamb and would need a monosyllabic word between “lights” and “over” to become a regular iambic pentameter (hence Larkin’s remark that each of those lines is missing a syllable). All four lines of stanza 1 are in dimeter, stanza 2 has dimeter in lines 2 and 3 surrounded by trimeter in 1 and 4, while the third stanza has dimeter only in line 1 and then trimeter in the poem’s final three lines.
