Reviews

... there followed a major treatise which analyses the sonnets in extra- ordinary depth. The scholarly input is in the proper sense of the word - awesome. I thought that in the course of my university studies and many years of teaching I had some understanding of Shakespeare's writings. Alongside the Peters' insights this understanding is trite, superficial and inadequate. The work that Mr. Peters has produced is not merely a work of discovery: it is a masterpiece of analysis which breaks new ground and compels by its logic a new view of the sonnets. R. G. Habershon M.A. B.Ed. A.C.C.M. Dip. Teach. I am sure that the systematic exposition of his views which he is working out in a most committed and honest manner will prove to be an original contribution to our under- standing of these matters and consequently of wide interest. This interest will include those involved in the exposition of the thought of Shakespeare but also philosophers and historians of ideas concerned with philosophy of life issues and with broad issues in the philosophy of art and aesthetics. Emeritus Professor Les Holborow I still find his sense of overall coherence of the sonnets challenging and fascinating. I am more excited by it than by most standard academic commentaries on the sonnets. Professor Richard P. Corballis


Author Information

Roger Peters is an artist, philosopher and writer who lives and works in Taranaki, New Zealand. In 1995, he detected a profound and comprehensive philosophy in Shakespeare's 1609 Sonnets. The depth and scope of the insight explains why Shakespeare's plays and poems are increasingly relevant to today's global audience. Peters presented Shakespeare's nature based philosophy in a 1760-page four-volume set William Shakespeare's Sonnet Philosophy in 2005. This volume, Shakespeare & Mature Love (2017), follows a summary volume Shakespeare's Global Philosophy (2017) of 360 pages and several others forthcoming. Together they provide further ways to access the understanding. In 2001, Peters established the Quaternary Institute www.quaternaryinstitute.com as a pedagogic space for exploring and disseminating the insights arising from Shakespeare's unprecedented achievement.
