In this book, Samuel Jay Keyser explores in detail the way repetition works in poetry, music, and painting. He argues, for example, that the same cognitive function underlies both how poets write rhyme in metrical verse and the way songwriters like Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn (Satin Doll) and Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart (My Funny Valentine) construct their iconic melodies. Furthermore, the repetition found in these tunes can also be found in such classical compositions as Mozarts <em>Rondo alla Turca</em> and his <em>German Dances</em>, as well as in galant music in general.</p><p>The author also looks at repetition in paintings like Gustave Caillebottes <em>Rainy Day in Paris</em>, Andy Warhols <em>Campbells Soup Cans,</em> and Jackson Pollocks drip paintings. Finally, the photography of Lee Friedlander, Roni Horn, and Osmond GigliaGiglias <em>Girls in the Windows</em> is one of the highest-grossing photographs in historyare all shown to be built on repetition in the form of visual rhyme.</p><p>The book ends with a cognitive conjecture on why repetition has been so prominent in the arts from the Homeric epics through Duke Ellington and beyond. Artists have exploited repetition throughout the ages. The reason why is straightforward: <em>the brain finds the detection of repetition innately pleasurable.
