Description: How does one convey the clock in the brain, overt bodily movement, and the beat in metrical poetry? Panelists explain (or, better yet, demonstrate!) how they perform meter when teaching poetry and discuss a diverse selection of poetry. This panel commemorates Thomas M. Cable's scholarly contributions to the study of historical varieties of English meter.
