In this program, we continue exploring both the history and the essential components of poetry introduced in Volume 6.  Understand alliteration, assonance, and consonance in connection to rhythm & meter and rhyme.  Discover free verse as an artistic reaction against the poetry forms covered previously and as the dominant poetic form of our time.  Classic works of poetry are presented along with detailed graphics, engaging examples and exciting video.  On-screen, multiple-choice reviews at the end of each segment reinforce important concepts and make learning fun.
