/lit/ - Literature

Which is the best edition of the complete works of Shakespeare?

Help me point out specific uses of Imagery in the Sonnet below. I can't really find any, except maybe line three.

SONNET 15

When I consider every thing that grows
Holds in perfection but a little moment,
That this huge stage presenteth nought but shows
Whereon the stars in secret influence comment;
When I perceive that men as plants increase,
Cheered and cheque'd even by the self-same sky,
Vaunt in their youthful sap, at height decrease,
And wear their brave state out of memory;
Then the conceit of this inconstant stay
Sets you most rich in youth before my sight,
Where wasteful Time debateth with Decay,
To change your day of youth to sullied night;
And all in war with Time for love of you,
As he takes from you, I engraft you new.

I need to write an Essay that compares Shakespearean sonnets 15 and 73 themes. (Time and Morality)

Could /lit/ help me to formulate a thesis statement for this? I'd appreciate the help.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but im looking for a certain quote, but i cant think of it. Its something alone the lines of "a man is either born in to power, thrusted in to power or forced in to power". Can anyone please help? I need it for writing a Shakespearean Symposium piece for school

i am new to /lit/ and just recently decided that i would like to be a writer when i graduate high school. and i wanted to know what you guys think makes a good writer.

What Shakespeare play apart from Romeo and Juliet do you think could best be converted into a musical?

Books only two people have read? You piece of shit.

How many people have read Hamlet on this board?

Problem Marlowe?

This above all else, to thy own self be true.

Does it really need to be said?

Get rid of the last six, add The Metamorphosis and Other Stories by Kafka.

Also a generous serving of pic related.
