Shakespeare's collection of 154 sonnets explores themes such as love, beauty, time, and mortality, reflecting his thoughts over many years until their first publication in 1609. The sonnets encompass a range of tones and subjects, including love for a young man, reflections on life's transience, and allegories related to Greek mythology, all influenced by Latin poets like Horace. Aside from the sonnets, Shakespeare also authored narrative poems that delve into themes of lust, guilt, and mourning during a period when theaters were closed due to plague.
