5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding, January 27, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Free Verse: An Essay on Prosody (Paperback)
I read this book in graduate school in its original edition. I don't know that I've ever read a better treatment of the subject. Hartman makes an excellent case for free verse as a rigorous form, and his discussion of prosody should be required reading for all teachers of 20th century poetry and any poet who wants to work in this form.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely required reading for any serious poet/scholar., January 2, 2004
By 
"semanticfields" (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This actually is NOT the reprint edition (the previous reviewer's remarks to the contrary). ISBN 0-691-10185-X (this edition) is the original Princeton University Press edition (paperback) that contains the "Appendix: Full Text of Three Quoted Poems" (Moore, Larkin, Berryman). The Northwestern reprint that the previous reviewer is referring to is a different edition (ISBN 0-8101-1316-3). This Princeton edition is out of print and hard to obtain, but well worth it.
