By Charles Armitage Brown

Book Overview

Shakespeare's Autobiographical Poems: Being His Sonnets Clearly Developed, With His Character Drawn Chiefly From His Works is a book written by Charles Armitage Brown and published in 1838. The book is a literary analysis of Shakespeare's sonnets, in which Brown attempts to develop a clear narrative of Shakespeare's life based on the themes and characters depicted in the poems. Brown argues that the sonnets are autobiographical in nature, and that they reveal a great deal about Shakespeare's personal life, including his relationships, his struggles, and his triumphs. Throughout the book, Brown draws on examples from Shakespeare's plays and other works to support his analysis, and he provides a detailed examination of each of the sonnets in turn. The book is a fascinating look at one of the most enigmatic figures in literary history, and it offers a unique perspective on Shakespeare's life and work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
