Sonnet 15
Sonnet 15 is one of 154 sonnets written by the English playwright and poet William Shakespeare. It forms a diptych with Sonnet 16, as Sonnet 16 starts with "But...", and is thus fully part of the procreation sonnets, even though it does not contain an encouragement to procreate. The sonnet is within the Fair Youth sequence.
==Summary==
Also known as “When I consider every thing that grows,” Sonnet 15 is one of English playwright and poet William Shakespeare's acclaimed 154 sonnets. It is a contained within the Fair Youth sequence, considered traditionally to be from sonnet 1-126 “which recount() the speaker’s idealized, sometimes painful love for a femininely beautiful, well-born male youth,” within the previously mentioned 154 sonnets. 〔Cohen, Walter. “The Sonnets and ‘A Lover’s Complaint.’” The Norton Shakespeare, Volume 1: Early Plays and Poems. 3rd ed. Ed. Stephen Greenblatt. New York: W. W. Norton and Company. Print. p 1745.〕 In another subcategory the sonnet is also contained within what is known as the Procreation sonnets.
According to Vendler, the sonnet is the first to employ Shakespeare’s grand microcosmic scale, more suited to philosophy than a sonnet about love. 〔Vendler, Helen. The Art of Shakespeare's Sonnets. Cambridge, MA: Belknap of Harvard UP, 1997. Print. p 108.〕 Shakespeare begins the poem by with the speaker “look() on life from the vantage point of the stars above in his consideration; yet he sees as well from a helpless human perspective below.” 〔(Vendler 108)〕 The poem then introduces a “retrospective reading of ingraft” 〔Vendler 110〕 that denotes immortalizing the Fair Youth that continues in Sonnet 16.
