1. What is the difference between prose and poetry?

The difference between prose and poetry are:


Prose is the common type of the written (or spoken) language. It is not poetry. It doesn't utilize
any special format, for example, lists or tables. In writing, it is without special rhythm. It is like
ordinary correspondence. That is the thing that makes the most essential qualification with
poetry, and with theatrical works, for example, plays. The word prose originates from the Latin
prosa, which means straightforward, hence the term "prosaic". Prose writing is generally
received for the portrayal of facts or the conversation of whatever one's considerations are,
included in free flowing speech. It might be utilized for newspapers, novels, magazines,
encyclopedias, broadcast media, letters, stories, history, philosophy, biography, and numerous
different types of media. Prose generally has no formal structure, similar to meter or rhyme, that
is frequently found in poetry. Accordingly, it is utilized to depict literature which is non-poetic, and
non-theatrical. There is, however, a blend of the two forms of literature known as prose poetry
while the poetry is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and rhythmic characteristics of dialect,
for example, phonaesthetics, sound imagery, and meterto evoke meanings in addition to, or in
place of, the common apparent importance. Poetry has a long history, going back to the
Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh. Early poems evolved from folk songs, for example, the Chinese
Shijing, or from a need to retell oral epics, as with the Sanskrit Vedas, Zoroastrian Gathas, and
the Homeric epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey. Ancient attempts to characterize poetry, for
example, Aristotle's Poetics, centered around the speech in rhetoric, dramatization, song and
comedy. Later attempts focused on components, for example, reiteration, verse form and
rhyme, and emphasized the style which recognize poetry from more objectively informative,
prosaic forms of writing. From the mid-20th century, poetry has sometimes been more generally
regarded as a fundamental creative act employing language. Poetry uses forms and
conventions to recommend differential interpretation to words, or to bring out emotive reactions.
Devices, for example, assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia and rhythm are sometimes used to
accomplish musical or incantatory effects. The use of ambiguity, symbolism, irony and other
complex elements of poetic diction regularly leaves a poem open to numerous translations.
Similarly figures of speech such as metaphor, for example, simile, metaphor and metonymy
create a resonance between otherwise disparate imagesforming connections previously not
perceived. Related types of resonance may exist, between individual verses, in their patterns of
rhyme or rhythm. Some poetry types are specific to particular cultures and genres and respond
to characteristics of the language in which the poet writes. Readers acclimated to recognizing
poetry with Dante, Goethe, Mickiewicz and Rumi may consider it written in lines based on
rhyme and general meter; there are, in any case, traditions, for example, Biblical poetry, that
use different intends to make rhythm and euphony. Much modern poetry reflects a critique of
poetic tradition, playing with and testing, in addition to other things, the principle of euphony
itself, sometimes altogether forgoing rhyme or set rhythm. In today's undeniably globalized
world, poets frequently adapt forms, styles and strategies from various cultures and languages.
