You got that right... The end of the school year took up pretty much all my time. But, it's summer now, and I'm aiming to upload two videos a week for the next three months. Hopefully, I'll have one up in the next few days. Thank you for the encouragement!
So question: how much (if any) influence did the Elizabethan period have this poem? The subject of romantic love was certainly unique at the time with one of the Queen's foremost traits being chastity, and the nautical symbolism in this poem may have had some connection to the royal house, as the Armada portraits are some of the most famous painting from that time too. However, I don't know if Shakespeare wrote this during Elizabeth's reign or that of King James, so I may just be reading too much into it.
Excellent insight as always, Roger! I can confirm that Shakespeare was highly influenced by Queen Elizabeth's reign. Now whether or not that has anything to do with his use of nautical imagery... that I'm not sure. But you correctly point out that these images would have been prevalent in Shakespeare's time. So while it may just be a theory, I think it's a very interesting theory.
Such an amazing novel. But unabridged it's 117 chapters... That would probably take me three years. But if enough people want to see it, I'd give it a shot.
You were telling about the rhyme but I don’t really think that Shakespeare used any of those tricks. Like he was just reading a lot and inherited all the stuff which people can find in his plays and poems. But i don’t know for sure.Sorry if I am wrong
So sorry to be responding so late (crazy week). I think you're right that Shakespeare would have had a sort of rhythm when he wrote. And that he would have picked this up from reading. But there is a lot of intentionality when it comes to his meter and rhymes - Romeo and Juliet's first lines to each other being a perfect sonnet is a good example of this. Thank you so much for watching!
