The Poetry Toolkit: The Essential Guide to Studying Poetry

Dr Rhian Williams (University of Glasgow, UK)

Now thoroughly revamped with a diverse selection of poetic voices from the last fifty years, this third edition of Rhian Williams’s bestselling book, The Poetry Toolkit guides readers through key terms, genres and concepts that help them to develop a richer, more sophisticated approach to reading, thinking and writing about poetry. Combining an easy-to-use reference format with in-depth practice readings and further exercises, the book helps students master the study of poetry for themselves.

As well as featuring more contemporary voices, the 3rd edition of The Poetry Toolkit includes an expanded practical section giving guidance on close reading, comparative reading and advice on writing critically about poetry. In addition, the book is accompanied by a companion website offering audio recordings of poetry readings, weblinks and overviews of key theoretical approaches to support advanced study.
