Romantic Poets: The Sonnet



Thursday, Sep. 7-28, 2010; 10am-12noon
Parker Ridge, Library, 3rd floor
Facilitator: Ralph Pettie



The Lake District Poet William Woodsworth once wrote: "Scorn not the sonnet ..." with this key Shakespeare unlocked his heart. We all learned in high school that the sonnet entails only fourteen lines of poetry. But there are, of course many kinds of sonnets.


Ralph Pettie    is a Maine native and a Parker Ridge resident since May 1993. Ralph is a retired public high school teacher for over 30 years in southern Connecticut.
