Shakespeare’s Sonnets as Meta-Oxymoron
Pairing Epistemological Contradictions: Ideal / Real, Orthodox / Heretical, Realism / Nominalism

I post Shakespeare’s Sonnets one per post (in Thorpe’s order of 1609): Sonnet Menu.
My readings will follow below each sonnet but in their own order: and will require a Readings Menu to indicated the sequence in which my readings will be best understood. Thus, Sonnet 1 will appear first: Sonnet’s 1′s reading may appear at any time, may appear last!
