Abstract
- The article presents an analysis of the English sonnet between 1560 and 1580. An in-depth exploration into the form and content of the mid-Tudor era literary form is given, highlighting structural variances from the typical styles and the prominence of love as the central theme. Further discourse analysis is given regarding the use of love to point to deeper social constructions rather than dwell on the emotion itself.
