anyone know where I can find a good reference of Greek prosody online? In particular I am interested in the role of the pitch accent in Greek poetry.
If you have access through a library, Greek Metre by West is the standard modern handbook and is online.
Is this of any use perhaps?
thanks for the links. I could not access the West text online nor can I get it at my library. Do you know of any sites that better explain how the pitch accent is involved; I am trying to compare its effect with that of Latin’s “stress” accent.
