Chris has chosen the category of poetry interpretation for his speech competition. He will orally present the poem "Sonnet 73" by William Shakespeare. Before he begins his recitation, he plans to introduce the poem with a brief presentation and discussion of the sonnet's three important metaphors. What introduction would best introduce the metaphors found in the poem? Chris plans to share information from Jacob Livingston, a world-renowned Shakespeare scholar. From Livingston's book, "The World of the Sonnets," Chris begins his introduction, "'Sonnet 73' was written to a young friend of William Shakespeare's. It contains a pensive tone, and begins with a description of the coming of autumn." Chris decides to create a Powerpoint presentation that will include various visual images of autumn, the setting sun, and a dying fire. While sharing the slides of this visual presentation with his audience, Chris begins his introduction, "The coming of autumn. The setting of the sun. A dying fire. All are powerful visual metaphors of the passage of time, age, and death. These three metaphors play an important role in developing the theme and meaning of Shakespeare's 'Sonnet 73.'" Chris chooses to portray each metaphor with its own large, colorful poster hanging behind him on the stage. Standing in front of the posters, Chris begins his introduction, "The passage of time, aging, death, and unfailing love are all important themes developed in 'Sonnet 73' by William Shakespeare." Chris chooses to share information about the structures of various forms of sonnets. For his research, he uses an online poetry database. He begins his introduction, "The sonnet is a versatile and popular form, but no poet is as famous for his sonnets as William Shakespeare, and no sonnet is as full of the imagery of passing time, aging, and death as his 'Sonnet 73.'"
