1948 The Sonnets of William Shakespeare
What Our Customers Say...
Description
Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper
A new edition published by The Falcon Press, based on the original Metheun edition of 1925.
Original cloth binding with original unclipped dust wrapper.
This lovely collection of Shakespearean sonnets was personally rearranged by etymologist and civil servant, Sir Denis Bray. Based on rhyme-link and word-link, Bray's re-arrangement solved a dispute about how Shakespeare's sonnets should be ordered, allowing for a smooth flow between sonnets.
