Lyric and Short Poetic Forms

Short and lyric poem forms and poetic techniques from the general literary-critical vocabulary: named devices, movements and thematic subgenres of verse that are not themselves the property of one regional or linguistic tradition. Belongs here: forms such as the eclogue, idyll, cento, dramatic monologue and epithalamium; movements and modes such as confessional, found, sound and visual poetry; thematic subgenres such as war, political, feminist and nonsense verse; and the general entities Poetry and Lyric Poetry themselves. Does not belong here: a named verse form that is itself one culture or language's own tradition (the troubadour canso, the Japanese waka, Marathi abhang), placed under world traditional verse forms instead, and a form whose defining feature is explicitly religious or devotional use, placed under religious and devotional writing instead.
