Question: How are
parallel structures used differently in different kinds of prose?
Answer: “Based on an
extensive computer-aided examination of representative published American
writing, this book examines and compares how various kinds of prose employ the
diverse forms of parallelism.” MP Hiatt. 1875. P. 291.
Comment: Might not be of interest to my readers, but
it is to me. I consider the use of parallel structures a hall mark of smooth
style in writing. The full citation is Artful Balance: The Parallel
Structures of Style. MP Hiatt. New York: Teachers College Press. 1975. RayS.
