Product details
Astrophel and Stella is a sonnet sequence written by the famous English poet, Sir Philip Sidney. The book is a collection of 108 sonnets and 11 songs that were written in the late 16th century. The sonnets are written in the Petrarchan style, which is characterized by an octave and a sestet, and they explore the themes of love, desire, and unrequited passion.The book is divided into two parts. The first part consists of 87 sonnets that are addressed to Stella, a fictional character who represents Sidney's love interest. The sonnets in this section describe Astrophel's (Sidney's alter ego) love for Stella and his frustration at her lack of reciprocation. The second part of the book consists of 21 sonnets that are addressed to various other people, including friends, family members, and even God.Astrophel and Stella is considered to be one of the most important works of the Elizabethan era. The sonnets are written in a highly poetic and lyrical style, and they are filled with rich imagery and metaphors. Sidney's use of language is exquisite, and his mastery of the sonnet form is evident throughout the book.The book has been interpreted in many different ways over the years. Some see it as a celebration of love and desire, while others see it as a critique of the conventions of courtly love. Whatever the interpretation, there is no denying the beauty and power of Sidney's poetry. Astrophel and Stella remains a timeless masterpiece of English literature, and it continues to inspire and captivate readers to this day.Ouing In Trueth, And Fayne In Verse My Loue To Show, That She, Deare Shee, Might Take Som Pleasure Of My Paine, Pleasure Might Cause Her Reade, Reading Might Make Her Know.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
