A Mirror for Lovers: Shake-speare's Sonnets as Curious Perspective,
by William F. Zak, seeks to identify in Shake-speare'e sonnet
sequence the structural and thematic features of the satirical
tradition born in Plato's Symposium. Through this study, Zak traces
the power of an idea to endure, re-animate, and enrich itself
through time: Plato's discrimination of the true nature of love in
The Symposium. Born anew in its medieval reincarnations (The
Romance of the Rose, The Vita Nuova, and The Canzoniere of
Petrarch), the tradition begun in Plato's Symposium was then
resuscitated in the Elizabethan sonnet sequence revival, most
notably in Shake-speare's Sonnets. With extended examination of all
the texts in the Q manuscript, A Mirror for Lovers makes a case for
the mutually illuminating relationship among the sonnets to the
fair young man and the dark lady, "A Lover's Complaint," and the
mysterious dedication that until now have never received attention
as an integral symbolic matrix of meaning.
