Poetic Diction:
Diction means word choice and poetic diction means language and usage peculiar
to poetry. A collection of some special words which have been used in the
poetry is called poetic diction. Diction is used between poetic and other
language. Spenser’s use of archaisms in Farie Queene is very
popular.
A conscious demarcation between the language of prose and poetry throughout
the 17th Century is very common scene. Vocabulary of poetry and isolated
from the ordinary tradition make a creation more attractive to the readers. The
conventionalized language and meters in Augustan poetry is remarkable.
