American postmodern poetic texts: in search of rhythmicity

Abstract: This paper highlights the results of the experimental phonetic research on American postmodern poetic texts, voiced by their authors. The acoustic analysis of fundamental frequency, duration, and intensity of rhythmic groups proves their rhythm-creating ability. Arrhythmicity is seen as a means of creating the effect of defeated expectancy, emphasizing those speech fragments, which are crucial in the decoding of the author's intention.

“…And yet several of her poems reveal her mastery of the form. Like her predecessors, Dickinson's poems reveal the strong pulse rhythm of four major stresses in a line, with several variantly stressed syllables in between (Zabuzhanska, 2017). Principles of Romance syllabotonic vary the stricter patterns of the Germanic stress-timed system, so that patterns of alliteration are more varied, and stress rests can occur at line end as well as elsewhere.…”

“…In a relatively short text, a poet is to encode in a concise manner an enormous volume of information using a variety of means. These may include the use of paradoxical poetic forms (Marina, 2018), phonetic expressive means, such as rhyme and rhythm (Stashko, 2016;Zabuzhanska, 2017) and some others. In the poetic text, we may identify leading and background segments (sometimes we may come across their rhythmical interchange) or we may speak of the so called 'diffuse' modality uniting the whole text (Panasenko, 1985).…”

“…There is much empiric research highlighting the cross-linguistic and cross-cultural features of English and Slovak (Hudíková et al 2020;Stashko et al 2022;Zabuzhanska et al 2022). Yet, to date, expressive linguistic forms of Slovak and English emotional media storytelling have been studied less intensively.…”
