FROM THE PUBLISHER - A radical yet careful reconsideration leads the author to a small but far-reaching re-arrangement of the Quarto ordering. Many have tried to find the original order, but have tended to use hare-brained codes, or massive reshuffling, and the result makes no better sense than the quarto ordering. S. C. Campbell assumes (giving good reason for so doing) that only a few repositionings are necessary, and in sets rather than in individual sonnets. The remarkable effect of this is dual: first it imparts continuous narrative sense, placing recovery from a set of symptoms after their onset (not before, as in quarto order and second the Dark Lady is now seen as a misadventure from which the poet returned to the original friendship, and further, that the Dark Lady is not a literal woman, but is in fact the dark side of the fair friend, the negative image of the same man. 'She' is a witch of carnal love who impersonates the Platonic 'heavenly' love of the friend. In other words, the sonnets can be read as a continuous story with an ending which is thought-provoking for our permissive age; they are also homosexual throughout, and addressed to one man: the Earl of beautiful Southampton, Shakespeare's young patron. inventory #8627.
