Sonnet Criticism and Analysis

[Candy]

Does anyone have a source for analysis of the Sonnets? Especially something contemporary or new perspective?

This is not a question for promotion materials...I just got a request for such writing and am waiting delivery of Katherine Duncan-Jones Arden copy. Looking for more...

This is worth reading. Offers a new perspective.

I collected a few books last year but mostly older. I heard (possibly in the Duncan-Jones Arden!) that in more recent years, interpretation has been rather strictly about formal qualities. That didn't interest me so much... I have a little pile centred on sexuality.

I agree Bryn, I'm not always so interested in formal qualities. I've got my Duncan Jones which I've been reading today. It is a lot about formal qualities but it also gets juicy. I am much more interested in books about the sexuality! Do share Bryn LOL

Thanks Jake, I'll take a look.
