- Description
- Kumamoto examines eleven syntactical patterns used in conjunction with poetic enjambment. Chaucer's poetry contains more enjambment than do three anonymous romances included for comparison--and Chaucer uses enjambment more in his early poetry (BD, HF, PF) than in KnT, MilT, and RvT.
