Incarnation: Contemporary Writers on the New Testament von Alfred Corn
contemporary writers on the NT
I found this manual not especially lively or revelatory, but it is a fair introduction to the topic--or a good review (or second opinion) following more involved and engaging books on versification, such as Derek Attridge's Poetic Rhythm or Timothy Steele's All the Fun's in How You Say a Thing. It helped me synthesize perspectives on substitution, truncation, and hypermetrical syllables.
Agree with the previous reviewer. While rich in information, the presentation made it difficult to stick with the reading. A few times, however, I caught myself saying "interesting" aloud so there were certainly gems that made the effort of reading this book worthwhile.
An imaginative introduction to the New Testament.
