Sonnets, Part II

Class

Today we grapple with the rhythm of Shakespeare's sonnets. We shall begin with a quick lesson in meter and scansion.

Then we will do a read around using Sonnet 90.

Finally, each of you will examine the sonnet you chose for your journal to determine what is the best way to read it--and will do so for the class.
