Books By and About Shakespeare
Verse, Meter and Rhythm (Shakespeare specific and general)
Wright's book is quite helpful in understanding how Shakespeare uses meter. Shapiro and Beum's classic The Prosody Handbook is back in print. It is a clearly written, accessible introduction. Attridge's book and the NCTE publication have practice exercises.
