Petrarchan- traditional;, classical, flowery, 8 & 6
Shakespearean- no bs, 3 quatrains & 1 couplet(stands by itself)
Shift from couplet
- goes from insulting her to yet he still loves her
Shakespeare was a modernist of his time, goes against traditional, this sonnet is a response to classical writing
-his lover is human & that's why he loves her, loved based on what's real, has integrity
-commenting on love, what it's based on in society and also on the literature of love
