unrhymed poetry
[/ʌnˈraɪmd ˈpoʊətri/]
nounpl: unrhymed poetry (uncountable)
poesia sem rima
1. Poetry composed without a regular rhyme scheme; verse that does not follow a pattern of end rhymes between lines
T.S. Eliot's modernist works often employed unrhymed poetry to break from traditional poetic conventions.
As obras modernistas de T.S. Eliot frequentemente empregavam poesia sem rima para romper com as convenções poéticas tradicionais.
2. Free verse or blank verse that relies on other poetic devices such as imagery, rhythm, and sound patterns rather than rhyme
Much contemporary unrhymed poetry focuses on form, meter, and the musicality of language without relying on end rhymes.
Muita poesia sem rima contemporânea se concentra na forma, na métrica e na musicalidade da linguagem sem depender de rimas finais.
Unrhymed poetry became prevalent in the 20th century, particularly with modernist and contemporary movements in both English-speaking countries and Brazil. In Brazil, the modernist movement of the 1920s embraced free verse and unrhymed poetry as a rejection of rigid Parnassian traditions, making this form central to Brazilian literary innovation. In the USA and UK, poets like Walt Whitman and T.S. Eliot championed unrhymed forms, fundamentally changing how poetry is understood and taught.
