How can we look afresh at Shakespeare as a writer of sonnets? What
new light might they shed on his career, personality, and
sexuality? Shakespeare wrote sonnets for at least thirty years, not
only for himself, for professional reasons, and for those he loved,
but also in his plays, as prologues, as epilogues, and as part of
their poetic texture. This ground-breaking book assembles all of
Shakespeare's sonnets in their probable order of composition. An
inspiring introduction debunks long-established biographical myths
about Shakespeare's sonnets and proposes new insights about how and
why he wrote them. Explanatory notes and modern English paraphrases
of every poem and dramatic extract illuminate the meaning of these
sometimes challenging but always deeply rewarding witnesses to
Shakespeare's inner life and professional expertise. Beautifully
printed and elegantly presented, this volume will be treasured by
students, scholars, and every Shakespeare enthusiast.
