Description

"In a provocative discussion of the question of proper names and naming events in the sonnets and plays, the book seeks to reopen the question of the autobiographical nature of Shakespeare's sonnets."--BOOK JACKET.

First Sentence

In the Introduction I argued that it is not fruitful to assume that the rhetorical aims of Shakespeare's sonnets in particular, and early modern Petrarchan poetry in general, are primarily epistemological.
