• Unlike the sonnets of his contemporaries, Shakespeare’s sonnets focus on a beautiful young man (instead of a lady) as an object of love and devotion, as well as a dark and sexually promiscuous mistress (instead of a chaste, blond woman).
• Range of moods/emotions in his sonnets (unlike Petrarchan sonnets)
• Sonnets 1-17: celebrates beauty of young man and urges him to have children
• Sonnets 18-126 still focused on young man, and discusses the ephemeral nature of life versus love and the staying power of poetry
• Remaining sonnets focus on “Dark Lady”
• Sonnets are dense and complex
