As a Ben Lee who has never been the famous Ben Lee, here's a deep cut: ua-cam.com/video/enhQYHxoNMY/v-deo.htmlsi=gxZ_FHKnicrjAA78 Overall I find this video incredibly charming and I feel like I can get a better sense of things that the sonnet stirs up by watching your expressive eyes 👏👏

HI! I need your help with that sonnet... Could you tell me its stressed and unstressed syllables? Because my professor said that there´s a sound change from line 3 but I cannot make it out :( Thanks

Brilliant.

Very well commented! Quarantine has one way or another enriched us all, who have survived these hard times!

The beginning of a worthy endeavor. I really enjoy the lesson and history. Nicely done.

Distinctive, incisive, clear, and PERSONAL! BRAVA!

I do not entirely agree with condemning Shakespeare as a human being because of this sonnet. :) 1. it is literature: when a protagonist makes a disparaging hate speech, it is still the speech of the protagonist, not the author. 2. unlike the voicemail, which only the recipient hears, here the speaking character is exposed to the judgment of the reading public. 3 It is not at all clear from the text that the protagonist really "morally" condemns the promiscuity of the "Dark Lady". (The whole environment of the other sonnets basically says again and again: the beloved may do anything, and the lover will never condemn the beloved for it). 4. the protagonist humiliates himself by only wanting to "participate", in front of the "Dark Lady", who has a very dominant position overall. I compare this here once again with Heinrich Heine. His hate poems about his lover, who just married someone else, are highly unfair - and therefore so moving.

One question: Can the "fair youth" and the "dark lady" be rather fictional characters? Even if Shakespeare calls himself by his name "will"? I think that would fit into the tradition of Petrarch, whose Laura was also fictional in a way. I say this because Heinrich Heine also made himself the protagonist of his love poems (the "Dichter" who wrote "die kleinen Lieder"), but this girl who ended up marrying this "Gimpel" („bullfinch“ which means "this conceited philistine") and who is the subject of many of his poems was fictional. I see Shakespeare and Heine as two original variations on Petrarch. What do you think?

Thank you for this! So interesting: I thougth I knew this sonnet very well and have to find tons of P*** and V*** more than I thought! May I add one thought to the question if Shakespeare was gay (in my best english): What was a better place for an artist being gay than the theater where you are allowed to wear women's clothes, where you can speak to a man how it is only allowed to a woman (even it's only written in the script) and where you can flee from your marriage. Are you going to present Sonnet 129? I think this must be the feeling of somebody who can't have "legal" sexuality. Like a drug addict he stagger through illegality.

Thank you for this! I can't resist to recommend to you the wonderful presentation of this sonnet by the SonnetProjctNYC: ua-cam.com/video/fgH2iHSvK1o/v-deo.html (most of the SonnetProject are less convincing, but this...). It's one of my favourit sonnets too (if it is possible to have less than favourit 60 ones).
