Before, during and after the preparation of Classical Hebrew Poetry: A Guide to its Techniques, Wilfred Watson published several articles on Hebrew poetry in a wide range of periodicals. The present volume collects together the most significant of these writings, including a chapter from a book on chiasmus, as well as a few unpublished items. After an opening survey of current work on Hebrew verse the articles cover the following topics: parallelism (including half-line parallelism, previously almost unnoticed), antithesis, word pairs, chiasmus, figurative language and introductions to speech
"The articles collected here span several years of study and some of them appeared before the publication of [the author's] Classical Hebrew poetry ... As well as reprints of articles already published there are three new studies: on ethnopoetics and Hebrew verse; on parallelism in the Song of Songs and on a metaphor in Jeremiah
