14世纪晚期, poetrie,“诗歌,韵文; 一首诗; 古代文学; 诗歌作品,寓言或故事”,源自13世纪的古法语 poetrie,可能直接来自中世纪拉丁语 poetria(约650年),源自拉丁语 poeta(见 poet)。在古典拉丁语中, poetria 的意思是“女诗人”。
比喻用法始于1660年代。古英语中有 metergeweorc “韵律”, metercræft “韵律艺术”。还有 scop-cræft “诗人的艺术”。现代英语在这组词中缺乏真正的动词形式,尽管已经尝试过 poeticize(1804年), poetize(来自法语 poétiser,1580年代)和 poetrize(约1600年)。Poetry in motion(1826年)可能来自 poetry of motion(1813年)的“舞蹈”(也有 poetry of the foot,1660年代)。Poetry slam 于1993年出现。
It is only by a miracle that poetry is written at all. It is not recoverable thought, but a hue caught from a vaster receding thought. A poem is one undivided unimpeded expression fallen ripe into literature, and it is undividedly and unimpededly received by those for whom it was matured. [Thoreau, "A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers"]
诗歌的创作只有通过奇迹才能完成。它不是可恢复的思想,而是从更广阔的后退思想中捕捉到的色彩。一首诗是一个未分割的、不受阻碍的表达,成熟后落入文学中,它是未分割地、不受阻碍地被那些为它成熟的人接受。
Poetry — meaning the aggregate of instances from which the idea of poetry is deduced by every new poet — has been increasingly enlarged for many centuries. The instances are numerous, varied and contradictory as instances of love; but just as 'love' is a word of powerful enough magic to make the true lover forget all its baser and falser, usages, so is 'poetry' for the true poet. [Robert Graves, "The White Goddess"]
诗歌——指每个新诗人从中推导出诗歌概念的实例的总和——已经在许多世纪里不断扩大。这些实例像爱情实例一样众多、多样且矛盾; 但正如“爱情”是一个具有强大魔力的词语,能使真正的爱人忘记所有更低级和虚假的用法,对于真正的诗人来说,“诗歌”也是如此。[罗伯特·格雷夫斯,《白色女神》]
And the relation of the forms of poetry to the requirements of actual song is so fixed, that the laws of the four great groups of metre which we now successively to examine—the trimetre, tetrametre, pentametre, and hexametre—all depend upon the physical power of utterance in the breath. [Ruskin, "Elements of English Prosody, for use in St. George's Schools," 1880]
诗歌形式与实际歌曲要求的关系是如此固定,以至于我们现在要依次研究的四个大组韵律——三音步、四音步、五音步和六音步的法律——都取决于呼吸的物理发声能力。[拉斯金,《英语韵律要素,供圣乔治学校使用》,1880年]
