"The articles collected here span several years of study and some of them appeared before the publication of [the author's] Classical Hebrew poetry ... As well as reprints of articles already published there are three new studies: on ethnopoetics and Hebrew verse; on parallelism in the Song of Songs and on a metaphor in Jeremiah"--Preface. |

| Summary |
Before, during and after the preparation of Classical Hebrew Poetry: A Guide to its Techniques, Wilfred Watson published several articles on Hebrew poetry in a wide range of periodicals. The present volume collects together the most significant of these writings, including a chapter from a book on chiasmus, as well as a few unpublished items. After an opening survey of current work on Hebrew verse the articles cover the following topics: parallelism (including half-line parallelism, previously almost unnoticed), antithesis, word pairs, chiasmus, figurative language and introductions to speech. |
