13 juin 1633 - 'Songs and Sonnets', John Donne
Description:
Love poems
Develop farfetched arguments and make use of paradox to break with Petrarchan conventions of love poetry. In his description of love, he's: moving, irreverent, shocking, cynical, portrays consummated love, the mistress is no longer unattainable, but in bed. The lovers are above the rest of the world, their love is divine. D takes his images from new discoveries in geography and anatomy
