Shakespeare's sonnets and poems : a very short introduction / Jonathan F. S. Post
Livre
Edited by Oxford University Press - 2017
"Of all Shakespeare's great canon of work, it is his sonnets and poems which include the fullest exploration and expression of the themes of love, lust, and the consequences of desire. In this "Very Short Introduction" Jonathan Post introduces all of Shakespeare's poetry: the sonnets; the two great narrative poems, "Venus and Adonis" and "The Rape of Lucrece" ; "A Lover's Complaint" and "The Phoenix and the Turtle." Taking into account Shakespeare's double identity as both poet and playwright, Post analyzes the enduring appeal of Shakespeare's poems, and considers how the sonnets compare with other great love poetry of the English Renaissance."
