The Sonnets and a Lover's Complaint - William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare is a global icon for his plays such as Hamlet, Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet, but his poetic meditations on love are among the most powerful and evocative poems ever written. This Penguin Classics edition of Sonnets and A Lover''s Complaint is edited by John Kerrigan.''Shall I compare thee to a summer''s day?''The language of Shakespeare''s sonnets has become inseparable from the language of love in English; but the force and tenderness of these poems is undiminished by age. When this volume of Shakespeare''s poems first appeared in 1609, he had already written most of the great plays that made him famous. The 154 sonnets - all but two of which are addressed to a beautiful young man, ''Mr W.H.'', or a treacherous ''dark lady'' - contain some of the most exquisite and haunting poetry ever written, and deal with eternal subjects such as love and infidelity, memory and mortality, and the destruction wreaked by Time. Also included is A Lover''s Complaint, originally published with the sonnets, in which a young woman is overheard lamenting her betrayal by a heartless seducer.In his illuminating introduction, John Kerrigan examines how the sonnets are intertwined, the ways in which these works ...

Shakespeare’s Sonnets, Retold - William Shakespeare, James Anthony

'James Anthony has done something I would have confidently stated to be impossible. He has "translated" Shakespeare’s sonnets and he has done so with an insolent, loveable charm … A dazzling success’ – Stephen FryRediscover the greatest love poetry ever writtenShall I compare you to a summer’s day?You’re more delightful, always shining strong;High winds blow hard on flowering buds in May,And summer never seems to last that long…Shakespeare’s sonnets are some of the nation’s favourite lines of verse, but the Elizabethan language can make it difficult to really understand them. Many guides offer to clarify the meaning, but lose the magic of the words by explaining them away. James Anthony has done something boldly different. He has rewritten the whole series of poems as sonnets using modern language, while retaining the rhythm and rhyme patterns that gives them such power. In doing so he breathes new life into the original poems and opens them up for a modern readership, demystifying Shakespeare’s eternal poetry with provocative new translations and delightful new lines. Presented as an attractive book with the original sonnets facing their new translations, this is a stunning collection of beautiful love poems, made new.

Sonnets / Sonety - William Shakespeare, Jaromír Gál, Tomáš Kropáček, Edward de Vere

Pochybnosti o autorství Sonetů a her přisuzovaných W. Shakespearovi jsou starého data; výborně shrnuté je najdete v knize anglistky P. Váňové Identita génia - Shakespeare / Oxford. Sonety byly vydány beze jména autora roku 1609 a Shakespeare se k nim nehlásil. Věnování anonymního nakladatele hovoří o našem nesmrtelném básníkovi, pak musel být básník v roce vydání Sonetů mrtev, neboť nesmrtelnými či věčně živými jsou nazýváni již mrtví velikáni.Divadelní podnikatel Shakespeare však zemřel až v dubnu 1616! Zato ten, koho označují J. T. Looney, Charles Ogburn či Minos D. Miller za pravého autora Shakespearových her i Sonetů, totiž Edward de Vere, 17. hrabě z Oxfordu, zemřel již roku 1604. Filmu Anonymous je jistě třeba přijímat jako nadsázku, ale snímek asi nebude od pravdy daleko... Překlady Sonetů vydává Miloslav Uličný podruhé, avšak poprvé zrcadlově, s originály. A poprvé knižně jako doslov vydává též aktualizovanou stať o všech celistvých či téměř úplných českých překladech Sonetů.

Reading Shakespeare's Sonnets - Don Paterson

Shakespeare''s Sonnets are as important and vital today as they were when first published four hundred years ago. Perhaps no collection of verse before or since has so captured the imagination of readers and lovers; certainly no poem has come under such intense critical scrutiny, and presented the reader with such a bewildering number of alternative interpretations. In this illuminating and often irreverent guide, Don Paterson offers a fresh and direct approach to the Sonnets, asking what they can still mean to the twenty-first century reader.In a series of fascinating and highly entertaining commentaries placed alongside the poems themselves, Don Paterson discusses the meaning, technique, hidden structure and feverish narrative of the Sonnets, as well as the difficulties they present for the modern reader. Most importantly, however, he looks at what they tell us about William Shakespeare the lover - and what they might still tell us about ourselves.
