Lit 12

We need to be finished the core works under the Renaissance heading in time for our Xmas exam so feel free to read ahead, especially, if you find the language difficult.

Since we chose to cheer on the soccer team, we did not discuss the next sonnet together which means that you will need to make your own notes for each quatrain and couplet, please. Besides simply translating it into modern English, be sure to take note of any interesting literary techniques in "Sonnet 130". Discuss how this sonnet parodies sonnet conventions. This sonnet is anti-Petrarchan.
