About these pages

These pages contain metrical descriptions of selected Russian poems. The HTML is generated from XML source with XSLT scripts; some of the information (such as foot boundaries and rhyme) has been input directly, while other information (such as meter variation, word meter, and stressed vowel patters) is computed by the XSLT. Comments, suggestions, and textual contributions are welcome, and XML source and XSLT scripts are available on request; please write to David J. Birnbaum (djbpitt+@pitt.edu).
