Refrain Usage

The book begins by defining refrains and tracing their historical presence.
It then progresses to analyze their dual roles: as structural elements that dictate pace and arrangement, and as vehicles for meaning that resonate with the poem's message.
Through case studies, the book demonstrates how refrains contribute to the overall artistic effect of a poem and connects them to recurring themes in literature.
This approach not only enhances understanding of poetic technique but also provides practical implications for writers and readers, improving both composition and interpretation.
