War and Peace

Ian H
Ian H is 32% done with Sonnets and Poems
Sonnets XXII-XXVIII

Of this batch, sonnets 25 and 27 stood out. The first deals with the vanity of glory and fame, whereas love is humbler and longer lasting, and the second is about a man dreaming of his love at night.

I caught an Iliad reference in today’s act. It felt nice.

Act I done.

Off to an even better start than Part 2! The Duke of York’s soliloquy is powerful, and Richard (later Richard III) may have one of the best opening lines of any Shakespeare character I’ve read.

Sonnets XV-XXI done.

I found out this last week that Shakespeare’s first 17 sonnets were commissioned by a family for their son who had not expressed any interest in settling down, getting married, and having children of his own, so turns out he’s only pro-natalist for hire. Sonnet 18 is the famous “shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” And the rest have a theme of writing keeping love immortal.

Act IV done.

“I thank you, good people—There shall be no
money; all shall eat and drink on my score; and I
will apparel them all in one livery, that they may
agree like brothers and worship me their lord.

The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.”
