Excerpt from The Order of Poetry: An Introduction Poems are written to be read or spoken and to be enjoyed. Poems are also studied, analyzed, evaluated, out any close inspection which does not have for its end the pleasure to be derived from, or the appreciation of, poetry is indicative of a serious confusion of end and means. We concede readily that many poems require study for the fullest understanding of subject matter, techniques, or even artistic refinements of diction, imagery, symbols, and the like. This is true because sometimes we are not familiar with certain topical or historical allusions in poetry which were common knowledge once but have now become obscure. This is true again because of various implications - biographical, philosophical, social, literary - which may elude us in a surface reading of the text. There is a tendency, of course, to be impatient with poetry that is difficult, by which is usually meant poetry that requires repeated readings and probings. Yet difficulty need not be equated with obscurity, although in fact they are sometimes one and the same. Nor, for that matter, is obscurity necessarily a fault. It is to be deplored only when the poet deliberately clouds his work to create the impression of a profundity that is not there. The critic must train himself in judgment to explore what is profound and to expose what is merely obfuscated. The pleasure attendant upon the discovery of multilayered meanings, evocative imagery, complex symbols, or intricate metrical devices, is ample compensation for the effort of exploration. We do not suggest that all poetry is so involved as to demand strenuous intellectual attention. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
