For more than two decades, Phil Roberts was a beloved and respected professor at Florida College and a scholar par excellence. "Leaving a Mark" is a collection of the published lectures and festschrift essays of the late Dr. Roberts.
In this refreshing and inspiring book, Phil Roberts asserts that poetry, like music, is based on sound and so close attention should be paid to its rhythms and metrical patterns.
