Domain-specific¶
- Poetic Form
- Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
- Volta
- The convention is most precisely codified in the sonnet: the Italian Petrarchan sonnet places its volta between octave and sestet, typically at the opening of line 9, where a pivot conjunction or pronoun signals that the preceding eight-line setup is now to be read differently; the English Shakespearean sonnet places it between the third quatrain and the closing couplet, at line 13, where the couplet's argument retrospectively reorients the three preceding quatrains
This sourceThe encyclopedia's VOLTA entry and its sonnet account of the octave turning into the more varied sestet. The encyclopedia's account of the sestina's three-line envoi (tornada) as its closing feature.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 3 citations: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
