Sonnet Notes- “if it looks like a square, it’s a sonnet” � Sonnet: Sonnets are poems with 14 lines, usually with 10 syllables in each line, following the traditional English rhythm of unstressed and stressed beats called iambic pentameter. � Sonnets are strong examples of poetry with a strict form. � The most prominent types of sonnets in English are the Italian or Petrarchan sonnet and the English or Shakespearean sonnet. � The Italian (Petrarchan) sonnet consists of one eight-line stanza (an octave) followed by one six-line stanza (a sestet), traditionally with a rhyme scheme such as abba cdecde or ababcdcd cdecde � The English (Shakesperean)sonnet consists of three four-line stanzas (quatrains) followed by a single two-line stanza (a couplet), following a rhyme scheme of abab cdcd efef gg. � The Spenserian sonnet is another prominent type of English sonnet, which has a traditional rhyme scheme of abab bcbc cdcd ee. � Traditional sonnets contain strong themes of love but also explore the notion that poems, and art works in general, will outlive their creators.

Sonnet Notes Continued �In the Italian sonnet begins with a strong opening statement of eight lines followed by a resolution to the emotional or intellectual question of the first part of the poem-making the sonnet a self sufficient form, open to shades of mood and a dignified/elevated tone. �In England the sonnet shifted away from a slightly more intellectual and argumentative form and added a declamatory couplet. This couplet is the “loudest” and most powerful part of the sonnet.
