Exploring the vibrant intersections of two foundational literary forms, James J. Lu argues that prose and poetry have continually shaped and enriched one another across cultures and centuries.
Drawing on genre theory from Aristotle to Bakhtin, this book examines how poetic language permeates novels and how prose infiltrates verse, enriching traditional forms and creating hybrid forms such as prose poetry and verse novels. Considering diverse texts-from traditional epics to contemporary verse novels-Lu analyzes how authors from around the world blur the boundaries between narrative and lyric. It illuminates the impact of culture, craft, and creativity on the writing process and the reading experience. Lyrical Stirrings from Dynamic Interactions between Prose and Poetry invites readers to rethink rigid genre definitions and appreciate the fluidity of literary expression.
