Excerpt from C Sonnets by C Authors This little selection of Sonnets aims at including representative specimens of the most prominent English sonnet-writers from Wyatt to the present day. Much difference of opinion will naturally prevail as to what Sonnets ought to have been chosen; but it is hoped that ever taste will, at least, find here not a few examples of that fascinating form of verse adapted to its demands. Great difficulty has been experienced in the selection of examples from the many eminent sonnet-writers who adorn the literature of the age. I can only say that I have endeavoured to make my choice as representative and catholic as possible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Sonnet provides a comprehensive study of one of the oldest and most popular forms of poetry, widely used by Shakespeare, Milton, and Wordsworth, and still used centuries later by poets such as Seamus Heaney, Tony Harrison, and Carol Ann Duffy. This book traces the development of the sonnet from its origins in medieval Italy to its widespread acceptance in modern Britain, Ireland, and America. It shows how the sonnet emerges from the aristocratic courtly centres of Renaissance Europe and gradually becomes the chosen form of radical political poets such as Milton. The book draws on detailed critical analysis of some of the best-known sonnets written in English to explain how the sonnet functions as a poetic form, and it argues that the flexibility and versatility of the sonnet have given it a special place in literary history and tradition.
