Martin Luther - Reformation
• On November 1, 1517 – Ninety Five Theses (academic
propositions)-on Church of Wittenberg
• Printed with printing press, so more copies
could easily be done.
• Appalled at indulgences
• Political and economic demands of the Pope
• Christians are saved by faith alone
• Mark Getzel – monk collected money even outside of Wittenberg;
made Luther even more upset.
• Luther was excommunicated from the church
• Iconoclastic, but tolerated some images (systematic destruction of
images).
• Anabaptists – destruction of all images, very iconoclastic, insisted on
being baptized again.
Henry VIII
1491-1547
Painting: Hans Holbein the Younger
• Formerly opposed Luther
• He wanted to divorce Katherine of Aragon
to marry Anne Boleyn
• He accepted Reformation ideas and established his own
church
• Severed ties with the Vatican
• Married Anne Boleyn, whom later he had decapitated to
marry Jane Seymour
• Tomas More, scholar, humanist killed for treason
• More responsible for Utopia concept-everyone the same,
with total freedom to worship whatever religion.
Science
• Sir Francis Bacon – scientific observation,
science – no room for error; no room for
blind faith. Proof.
• Vasilius – Anatomy. Capillaries in the
human body.
• Napier – logarithm. Freed mathematicians
of long, complicated calculations
• Improvement of map creation techniques.
Elizabethan England
Fascination with Queen Elizabeth
Elizabeth I (7 September 1533 – 24 March 1603) was
Queen of England and Queen of Ireland from
17 November 1558 until her death. Sometimes called
The Virgin Queen, Gloriana, The Faerie Queen or
Good Queen Bess, Elizabeth was the fifth and last
monarch of the Tudor dynasty. The daughter of Henry VIII,
she was born a princess, but her mother, Anne Boleyn,
was executed three years after her birth, and Elizabeth
was declared illegitimate.

The Globe Theater
Sonnet 1
-
From fairest creatures we desire increase,
Sonnet 2
-
When forty winters shall beseige thy brow,
Sonnet 3
-
Look in thy glass, and tell the face thou viewest
Sonnet 4
-
Unthrifty loveliness, why dost thou spend
Sonnet 5
-
Those hours, that with gentle work did frame
Sonnet 6
-
Then let not winter's ragged hand deface
Sonnet 7
-
Lo! in the orient when the gracious light
Sonnet 8
-
Music to hear, why hear'st thou music sadly?
Sonnet 9
-
Is it for fear to wet a widow's eye
Sonnet 10
-
For shame! deny that thou bear'st love to any,
Sonnet 11
-
As fast as thou shalt wane, so fast thou growest
Sonnet 12
-
When I do count the clock that tells the time,
Sonnet 13
-
O, that you were yourself! but, love, you are
Sonnet 14
-
Not from the stars do I my judgment pluck;
Sonnet 15
-
When I consider every thing that grows
Sonnet 16
-
But wherefore do not you a mightier way
Sonnet 17
-
Who will believe my verse in time to come,
Sonnet 18
-
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Sonnet 19
-
Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion's paws,
Sonnet 20
-
A woman's face with Nature's own hand painted
Sonnet 21
-
So is it not with me as with that Muse
Sonnet 22
-
My glass shall not persuade me I am old,
Sonnet 23
-
As an unperfect actor on the stage
Sonnet 24
-
Mine eye hath play'd the painter and hath stell'd
Sonnet 25
-
Let those who are in favour with their stars
Sonnet 26
-
Lord of my love, to whom in vassalage
Sonnet 27
-
Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed,
Sonnet 28
-
How can I then return in happy plight,
Sonnet 29
-
When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
Sonnet 30
-
When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
Sonnet 31
-
Thy bosom is endeared with all hearts,
Sonnet 32
-
If thou survive my well-contented day,
Sonnet 33
-
Full many a glorious morning have I seen
Sonnet 34
-
Why didst thou promise such a beauteous day,
Sonnet 35
-
No more be grieved at that which thou hast done:
Sonnet 36
-
Let me confess that we two must be twain,
Sonnet 37
-
As a decrepit father takes delight
Sonnet 38
-
How can my Muse want subject to invent,
Sonnet 39
-
O, how thy worth with manners may I sing,
Sonnet 40
-
Take all my loves, my love, yea, take them all;
Sonnet 41
-
Those petty wrongs that liberty commits,
Sonnet 42
-
That thou hast her, it is not all my grief,
Sonnet 43
-
When most I wink, then do mine eyes best see,
Sonnet 44
-
If the dull substance of my flesh were thought,
Sonnet 45
-
The other two, slight air and purging fire,
Sonnet 46
-
Mine eye and heart are at a mortal war
Sonnet 47
-
Betwixt mine eye and heart a league is took,
Sonnet 48
-
How careful was I, when I took my way,
Sonnet 49
-
Against that time, if ever that time come,
Sonnet 50
-
How heavy do I journey on the way,
Sonnet 51
-
Thus can my love excuse the slow offence
Sonnet 52
-
So am I as the rich, whose blessed key
Sonnet 53
-
What is your substance, whereof are you made,
Sonnet 54
-
O, how much more doth beauty beauteous seem
Sonnet 55
-
Not marble, nor the gilded monuments
Sonnet 56
-
Sweet love, renew thy force; be it not said
Sonnet 57
-
Being your slave, what should I do but tend
Sonnet 58
-
That god forbid that made me first your slave,
Sonnet 59
-
If there be nothing new, but that which is
Sonnet 60
-
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
Sonnet 61
-
Is it thy will thy image should keep open
Sonnet 62
-
Sin of self-love possesseth all mine eye
Sonnet 63
-
Against my love shall be, as I am now,
Sonnet 64
-
When I have seen by Time's fell hand defaced
Sonnet 65
-
Since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless sea,
Sonnet 66
-
Tired with all these, for restful death I cry,
Sonnet 67
-
Ah! wherefore with infection should he live,
Sonnet 68
-
Thus is his cheek the map of days outworn,
Sonnet 69
-
Those parts of thee that the world's eye doth view
Sonnet 70
-
That thou art blamed shall not be thy defect,
Sonnet 71
-
No longer mourn for me when I am dead
Sonnet 72
-
O, lest the world should task you to recite
Sonnet 73
-
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
Sonnet 74
-
But be contented: when that fell arrest
Sonnet 75
-
So are you to my thoughts as food to life,
Sonnet 76
-
Why is my verse so barren of new pride,
Sonnet 77
-
Thy glass will show thee how thy beauties wear,
Sonnet 78
-
So oft have I invoked thee for my Muse
Sonnet 79
-
Whilst I alone did call upon thy aid,
Sonnet 80
-
O, how I faint when I of you do write,
Sonnet 81
-
Or I shall live your epitaph to make,
Sonnet 82
-
I grant thou wert not married to my Muse
Sonnet 83
-
I never saw that you did painting need
Sonnet 84
-
Who is it that says most? which can say more
Sonnet 85
-
My tongue-tied Muse in manners holds her still,
Sonnet 86
-
Was it the proud full sail of his great verse,
Sonnet 87
-
Farewell! thou art too dear for my possessing,
Sonnet 88
-
When thou shalt be disposed to set me light,
Sonnet 89
-
Say that thou didst forsake me for some fault,
Sonnet 90
-
Then hate me when thou wilt; if ever, now;
Sonnet 91
-
Some glory in their birth, some in their skill,
Sonnet 92
-
But do thy worst to steal thyself away,
Sonnet 93
-
So shall I live, supposing thou art true,
Sonnet 94
-
They that have power to hurt and will do none,
Sonnet 95
-
How sweet and lovely dost thou make the shame
Sonnet 96
-
Some say thy fault is youth, some wantonness;
Sonnet 97
-
How like a winter hath my absence been
Sonnet 98
-
From you have I been absent in the spring,
Sonnet 99
-
The forward violet thus did I chide:
Sonnet 100
-
Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long
Sonnet 101
-
O truant Muse, what shall be thy amends
Sonnet 102
-
My love is strengthen'd, though more weak in seeming;
Sonnet 103
-
Alack, what poverty my Muse brings forth,
Sonnet 104
-
To me, fair friend, you never can be old,
Sonnet 105
-
Let not my love be call'd idolatry,
Sonnet 106
-
When in the chronicle of wasted time
Sonnet 107
-
Not mine own fears, nor the prophetic soul
Sonnet 108
-
What's in the brain that ink may character
Sonnet 109
-
O, never say that I was false of heart,
Sonnet 110
-
Alas, 'tis true I have gone here and there
Sonnet 111
-
O, for my sake do you with Fortune chide,
Sonnet 112
-
Your love and pity doth the impression fill
Sonnet 113
-
Since I left you, mine eye is in my mind;
Sonnet 114
-
Or whether doth my mind, being crown'd with you,
Sonnet 115
-
Those lines that I before have writ do lie,
Sonnet 116
-
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Sonnet 117
-
Accuse me thus: that I have scanted all
Sonnet 118
-
Like as, to make our appetites more keen,
Sonnet 119
-
What potions have I drunk of Siren tears,
Sonnet 120
-
That you were once unkind befriends me now,
Sonnet 121
-
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteem'd,
Sonnet 122
-
Thy gift, thy tables, are within my brain
Sonnet 123
-
No, Time, thou shalt not boast that I do change:
Sonnet 124
-
If my dear love were but the child of state,
Sonnet 125
-
Were 't aught to me I bore the canopy,
Sonnet 126
-
O thou, my lovely boy, who in thy power
Sonnet 127
-
if it were, it bore not beauty's name;
Sonnet 128
-
oft, when thou, my music, music play'st,
Sonnet 129
-
The expense of spirit in a waste of shame
Sonnet 130
-
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Sonnet 131
-
Thou art as tyrannous, so as thou art,
Sonnet 132
-
Thine eyes I love, and they, as pitying me,
Sonnet 133
-
Beshrew that heart that makes my heart to groan
Sonnet 134
-
So, now I have confess'd that he is thine,
Sonnet 135
-
Whoever hath her wish, thou hast thy 'Will,'
Sonnet 136
-
If thy soul cheque thee that I come so near,
Sonnet 137
-
Thou blind fool, Love, what dost thou to mine eyes,
Sonnet 138
-
When my love swears that she is made of truth
Sonnet 139
-
O, call not me to justify the wrong
Sonnet 140
-
Be wise as thou art cruel; do not press
LONG POEMS
Sonnet 141
-
In faith, I do not love thee with mine eyes,
Sonnet 142
-
Love is my sin and thy dear virtue hate,
Sonnet 143
-
Lo! as a careful housewife runs to catch
Sonnet 144
-
Two loves I have of comfort and despair,
The Rape of Lucrece
Venus and Adonis
The Phoenix and the Turtle
The Passionate Pilgrim
Sonnets to Sundry Notes of Music
A Lover's Complaint
Sonnet 145
-
Those lips that Love's own hand did make
Sonnet 146
-
Poor soul, the centre of my sinful earth,
Sonnet 147
-
My love is as a fever, longing still
Sonnet 148
-
O me, what eyes hath Love put in my head,
Sonnet 149
-
Canst thou, O cruel! say I love thee not,
Sonnet 150
-
O, from what power hast thou this powerful might
Sonnet 151
-
Love is too young to know what conscience is;
Sonnet 152
-
In loving thee thou know'st I am forsworn,
Sonnet 153
-
Cupid laid by his brand, and fell asleep:
Sonnet 154
-
The little Love-god lying once asleep
