Historical View
Shakespeare's sonnets are
poems written by William
Shakespeare on a variety of
themes. When discussing or
referring to Shakespeare's
sonnets, it is almost always a
reference to the 154 sonnets that
were first published all together
in a quarto in 1609. However,
there are six additional sonnets
that Shakespeare wrote and
included in the plays Romeo and
Juliet, Henry V and Love's
Labour's Lost. There is also a
partial sonnet found in the play
Edward III.
