Love Prevails “Idea: Sonnet 61” by Michael Drayton is a fourteen line Petrarchan sonnet that dramatizes the conflicting emotions that arise from an intimate relationship coming to an abrupt end. After analyzing and doing several closer readings‚ I learned that “Idea: Sonnet 61” is actually about the poet’s own conflicting emotions and feelings from a harsh break up. However‚ it was no ordinary and flippant relationship. It was a serious relationship that involved great amounts of passion that

Sonnet 130: Imperfectly Perfect The secular world is increasingly fixated on the concept of beauty and the pursuit of perfection‚ however this preoccupation is not unique to the 20th century. While traditional love poems in the 18th century generally focused on glorifying a woman’s beauty‚ Sonnet 130 written by William Shakespeare goes against the conventional culture of love poems and instead describes the realistic nature of his object of affection.

love that well‚ which thou must leave ere long. The sonnet is the third in the group of four which reflect on the onset of age. It seems that it is influenced partly by lines from Ovid’s Metamorphoses‚ in the translation by William Golding. However the verbal parallels are somewhat sparse. Shakespeare’s presentation is much more individualistic and cannot easily be attributed to any one mould or influence.
