Structure Against Form
Captions available
The idea
Form is the pattern a poem sits in; structure is the route its thinking takes through that pattern. A sonnet's form is fourteen lines. Its structure is where the claim changes direction. The exam asks about the second more often than the first.
In practice
Pattern outside, thinking inside.
Where people slip
The exam favours structure questions.
