Sinopsis

'Miscellany. Songes and Sonettes,' also known as Tottel?s Miscellany, is a landmark anthology of English poetry, first published in 1557 by Richard Tottel. This collection is particularly significant for introducing the sonnet form to English literature and popularizing the works of Sir Thomas Wyatt and Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey. This edition offers a selection of poems showcasing the transition from medieval to Renaissance poetic styles. Wyatt?s contributions are marked by their innovative use of rhyme and meter, while Surrey is credited with developing the English, or Shakespearean, sonnet form. Together, their works, along with those of Nicholas Grimald and others, helped shape the course of English poetry and established new standards of literary expression.'Miscellany. Songes and Sonettes' remains an essential resource for scholars and enthusiasts of English literature, providing valuable insight into the cultural and artistic landscape of the 16th century.
