Book Synopsis Sonnet Sequences and Social Distinction in Renaissance England by :
Book excerpt: Christopher Warley argues that the formal tensions of the Renaissance sonnet sequence allowed poets to describe and invent new kinds of social distinction. Warley examines the social assumptions embedded in sonnet sequences, and offers a valuable contribution to the study of the social and cultural resonances of lyric forms.
