The collection features 154 sonnets exploring themes of love, beauty, time, and mortality, with some scholars suggesting a parody of traditional Petrarchan sonnets through inverted gender roles. Initially overlooked, these works gained prominence during the 19th-century Romantic movement, showcasing Shakespeare's literary genius. This edition includes a preface and annotations by Henry N. Hudson, along with an introduction by Charles H. Herford, enhancing the reader's understanding of the poems' context and significance.
