About this book
The account of the monologue defines the form through the effect of mind upon mind, the adaptation of one person's ideas to another, and the revelation of speaker and listener. The discussion explains that a monologue has been confused with oratory because only one person speaks, while insisting that a monologue is not a speech.
The analysis of a poem describes an abrupt pause, a rising or suspensive inflection, and a change of pitch, color and movement. The speaker's astonishment is described as mingled with disappointment and grief. The account of the poem's last eight lines describes a long pause and a slow movement, with the speaker possibly turning slightly away and becoming more subjective.
