To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sylvester is a conglomerate of translation, comment and digression, but contains a few interesting observations on metre from a mathematical point of view, obscured by a preposterous terminology. The articles by Browne (Mod. Lang. Notes), Jenkin, and Symonds are adapted to the needs of the non-technical student. A statement of the controversy over the various theories of metre may be found in the opening chapter of Mayor. The rythm of prose is a subject that still awaits careful investigation. ...Genung and Minto contain useful hints from the practical stand-point. A few pages full of sug- gestion are to be found in Guyau, who is always readable, and a very deft handling of the subject in Stevenson's THE PBINCIPLES OF STYLE. 23 essay on Style (Oontemp.) Advanced students should consult Aristotle's Ehetoric, III, 8, and Cope's Introduc- tion, p. 303. Further references will be found in the Guide to the Literature of Aesthetics, p. 101. See also prefaces to first and second editions of Gummere's Poetics.
