  Argues that many traditional poets treat words as visual artefacts and that some poems demand to be interpreted like pictures. While giving some attention to this subgenre, this book shifts the focus to the ways in which visual form manifests itself in 'traditional' verse, examining poems by Milton, Wordsworth, Eliot, Olson, T E Hulme, and Auden.
