Method of analysis of a poetry.

what is it necessary to look in a poetry?

1-If this text is extracted from a complete work, what is its place in the collection (link with the title)?

2-What is the register of the text? Is he(it) funny? Tragic? Poignant? Operatic works(lyric poet)? Epic? …

3-The theme of the poetry ( the subject) and its context (historic, social, religious.)

More particularly, it is necessary to raise(find) the following elements:

1-The paratexte (information on the author, the collection, date, smell of the title)

2-The statement: who speaks? (Pronouns of 1 °, 3 ° pers) has who?

3-The shape of the poem (sonnet? Ballad? In verse free poetry?.)

4 – The structure of the poem (quatrains? Triplets? § = each a different idea)

5 – The lexical fields: address only those who dominate and comment.

6 – The versification (rhyme followed? Kissed? Cross?; Alexandrian? Decasyllabics …? Is there
crossovers? Release? of cons-releases? alliteration? assonance?)

7 – figures of speech: metaphors, similes, hyperbole, personification … To identify and
comment.

8 – Typography: The poet he has his words in an original way?

9 – Punctuation: Is This? If yes, what role does she? If not, why? (Fluidity …)

10 – The registers of language (supported, familiar …)

11 – Adjectives (melioratives, pejorative): are they to make a positive or negative portrait of a person
or an object?

12 – The sentence structure: interrogative, exclamatory, affirmative, negative / punctuation.

13 – The rhythm of the verse: fast, slow …. How can he show the mindset of the narrator or to link
with the subject of the poem?

14 – The verb tenses: past, present, future, imperative … Comment jobs.
