back out. This is the scene that comes into my mind as I try to personify the two opposing sides of the Shakespeare controversy. For years now‚ the Stratfordians and Anti-Stratfordians fought.

Sonnet 2 by William Shakespeare describes the aging process and the importance of procreating in order to leave one’s mark both physically and mentally. The narrator of the sonnet is someone who is in love with the addressee and is hoping to convince them that they should procreate.

WORDSWORTH’S TREATMENT OF NATURE IN RELATION TO MAN IN TINTERN ABBEY In his Preface to The Excursion‚ Wordsworth asserts that it is the ‘Mind of Man’ which is ‘My haunt‚ and the main region of my song’.

His poetry‚ therefore‚ offers us a detailed account of the complex interaction between man and nature—of the influences‚ insights‚ emotions and sensations

How TINTERN ABBEY evolves from beginning to end is in a truly reflective state upon the five years that had passed since he had last visited the ruins of the abbey.

“It’s easy to say I love you but if it’s not behind the eyes or the truth then it’s nonsense and the audience will see it”(Johnny Depp). In Twelfth Night‚ Shakespeare shows that love is a blind journey that can cause pain. When you have found your love or are already in love‚ you become a walking zombie; the only thing you see is the good things about your partner and your relationship. When we tend to fall in love we often make the worst mistakes of our lifetime. In Twelfth Night Shakespeare is
