Author Jackson, Helen Hunt, 1830-1885
Title A Calendar of Sonnets
Credits Produced by Distributed Proofreaders
Summary "A Calendar of Sonnets" by Helen Hunt Jackson is a poetic collection written in the late 19th century. The book comprises twelve sonnets, one for each month of the year, and explores the themes of nature, the passage of time, and the emotional resonance of each season. It encapsulates the essence of the changing months and reflects on the beauty and melancholy inherent in the cyclical process of life. The content of the book is structured around the twelve sonnets, each encapsulating the mood and characteristics of its respective month. In January, the starkness of winter is depicted alongside a desire for warmth and inner peace, while February reflects on the introspective nature of the quiet season. As the months progress, the poems capture the richness of springtime, the fervor of summer, the bounty of autumn, and the reflective quality of winter once more. Through vivid imagery and emotional depth, Jackson emphasizes the harmony between nature and human experience, inviting readers to ponder their own relationships with the changing seasons and the passage of time.
