For the period's poets, metrical matters were a source of inspiration and often vehement debate. And the many readers, teachers, and pupils encountered meter and related topics in both institutional and popular forms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe ten essays in \u003ci\u003eMeter Matters\u003c\/i\u003e showcase the range of metrical practice of poets from Wordsworth and Byron to Hopkins, Swinburne, and Tennyson; at the same time, the contributors bring into focus some of the metrical theorizing that shaped poetic thinking and responses to it throughout the nineteenth century. Paying close attention to the historical contours of Romantic and Victorian meters, as well as to the minute workings of the verse line, \u003ci\u003eMeter Matters\u003c\/i\u003e presents a fresh perspective on a subject that figured significantly in the century's literature, and in its culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJason David Hall\u003c\/b\u003e is a senior lecturer in English at the University of Exeter, UK.
