Understudies of Thomas Wyatt's Petrarch

von Robert Sheppard

26 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Taking only the sonnets Wyatt ‘translated’ from Petrarch, but adding a few of his own, Robert Sheppard merges the historical Wyatt with his hysterical contemporary analogue, a reluctant civil servant of a corrupt administration. His world fluxes between Henrician terror, administered by Cromwell, and something like our own reality. These sonnets are from a larger grouping called The English Strain.
