The Offense of Poetry

Bag om The Offense of Poetry

There is something offensive about poetry, judging by the number of attacks on it and defences of it. The author argues that poetry exists to offend - not through its subject matter but through the challenges it presents to the prevailing view of what language is for. He also specifies four poetic offences - gesture, drama, fiction, and trope.
