In this class we will study Shakespeare’s sonnets. The course is conceived both as an introduction to the sonnet in general (form, tradition, development) and Shakespeare’s poetic work in its Elizabethan context in particular. The focus will be on analysing an interpreting, but also on reading and performing Shakespeare's poetry.
Please acquire a copy of the "Sonnets". Only use the Arden or New Shakespeare edition:
- Catherine Duncan-Jones (ed.). "Shakespeare's Sonnets" [The Arden Shakespeare]. London, 2010 (2nd or 3rd edition).
"or"
- Gwynne Blakemore Evans (ed.). "Shakespeare's Sonnets" [The New Cambridge Shakespeare]. Cambridge, 2006.
