The only actual collection of sonnets written by William Shakespeare Percy. Discover a collection of extraordinary sonnets that have been nearly invisible to scholars and students alike because they were misunderstood or deliberately suppressed by censors of the canon. As the introduction explains, one of its only preceding reprints was an 1818 edition that was prefaced by its editor as a poetic failure that was a typical example of “the court style”. A close analysis of Coelia’s poetic structure and linguistics proves this collection to be one of the best examples of metered and rhymed verse from the Renaissance. The real reason for the cold critical reception that has ostracized Coelia becomes apparent in the synopsis of the content of the unified narrative these sonnets relate. Coelia is a plea addressed to Elizabeth I for ending the Buggery Act that sentenced homosexuals to death. Sonnet XI refers to a suicidal sacrifice, and Percy was indeed risking his life when he put his own name in the byline of this poetic appeal. Because he was writing under his own name, Percy subverts some of this homosexual subject-matter by instead referring to ugly or masculine features behind a feminine or cross-dressing mask in Sonnet XIII. Each sonnet explores a new philosophical dilemma, with beautiful descriptions, complex mythological allusions, and tragically romantic appeals for love and sympathy. Percy was the dominant ghostwriter of most of the “Shakespeare”-bylined tragedies, but he only wrote a few pieces out of the “Shakespeare”-bylined multi-ghostwriter collection called Sonnets (1609); thus, readers have not really read a full collection of sonnets by “Shakespeare” the Tragedian until they explore Coelia. “Historians have long recognized that the revered Hippocratic Corpus is an accretion of the writings of many ghost writers and imitators. The analysis of a similar process of accretion in the instance of the British Renaissance Corpus has brought to the fore contributors and ghostwriters here-to-fore largely unknown. Such is the case with William Percy, obscure poet of the 17th century./ At first glance, the notion that careful analysis of this phenomenon may be assisted by artificial intelligence seems contrary to humanistic literary values. But Anna Faktorovich has been a full and sensitive participant in the process and the result is not only her computational-linguistics re-attribution, but also a sensitive, accessible rendition of William Percy’s twenty Sonnets to Coelia./ The poems are contextualized by exordia from multiple historical authors and perspicaciously by Anna Faktorovich herself. Such contextual writings illuminate the central purpose of Percy’s poetizing; the Sonnets to Coelia are an apologia for alternative forms of human love, more specifically an apologia for homosexual love. It is, therefore, of considerable modern interest as an important milestone (or millstone) in the historical record of laws governing human sexuality. Sonnets to Coelia is a plea to Elizabeth I to reverse the ‘Buggery Act’ of 1533, which she instead reinstated./ The poems themselves exemplify the period. They conform to the sonnet form with considerable consistency. What makes them seem most archaic to the modern ear is their rhyme. Commitment to rhyme over-rides all other considerations: it over-rides rhythm, it over-rides accessibility and often renders locutions awkward. Still a careful reading, aided by the abundance of footnotes, is rewarded by considerable amusement and insight./ Perhaps the greatest reward is received if the ‘beholder’s share’, that which the reader brings to the poem, is the presupposition that Coelia is a rubric signifying all the manifold and various forms of human love. Consider for example Sonnet 16 where a grain of cruelty seems to be welcomed:/ ‘Then, if I swear thy love does make me languish;/ Thou turn away, and smile scornfully./ And if I weep; my tears thou despise.’/ In summary, William Percy’s Sonnets to Coelia are a fascinating read and receive my highest recommendation.” —Midwest Book Review, Lloyd Jacobs (December 2021) “Dr. Anna Faktorovich’s writing is not only erudite but also beautiful and simple. Her persuasive and fascinating argument that William Percy was the main tragedian behind the ‘William Shakespeare’ pseudonym is most convincing in her work, Sonnets. She projects more credibility than any trial lawyer.” —LibraryThing, Valerie Ogden, past chairperson of the Mayor’s Animal Advisory Committee for the City of Philadelphia and president of the Board of Directors for the Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Exordium Text Terms, References, Questions, Exercises Introduction to the 1824 Edition by Joseph Haslewood Commentary on Haslewood’s Introduction The Title Page of William Percy’s Transcripts William Percy (1567?-1648) is the dominant tragedian behind the “William Shakespeare” pseudonym according to the computational-linguistic study in The Re-Attribution of the British Renaissance Corpus. Percy was a younger son of the assassinated 8th Earl of Northumberland and the brother of the imprisoned in the Tower 9th Earl.

Excerpt from Coelia: Containing Twenty Sonnets Mr. Park, to whom I owe the transcript of the present rare work, observes that " Percy's Sonnets have scarcely any plea for reproduction except their rarity. They are void of natural thought, of pleasing sentiment, of graceful metre, or even of grammatical propriety; and too much resemble the exotic verbiage and crude metre of that worthless production called Southern s Diana, which Puttenham in his Art of Poesy fitly termed "mingle mangle;" and which Mr. Steevens in the European Magazine branded with strong derision. The brevity of Percy's work is it's chief recommendation. His Sonnets were imparted to the world as "toys" indeed, and as a pledge for the produce of a poem "more fruitful and ponderous:" but the pledge, it is very probable, was never redeemed."

Excerpt from Coelia: Containing Twenty Sonnets Perhaps my friend Mr. Park has been a little toosevere on the present occasion. Percy's rhymes are sometimes dissonant; and both his thoughts and expres sions quaint and laboured and obscure; which may be partly attributed to the fashion of the day in which he wrote. On the other hand some of the Sonnets are as good and as harmonious as those of his cotemporaries. They affect what perhaps was then considered the court style, and the tone of high-bred literature. No particulars are known of the Author of coelia. A person of both his names was second of the seven brothers of Henry Percy, ninth Earl of Northumberland, a nobleman who died in 1632, aged 70; and whose imprisonment for fifteen years in the Tower on account of the Gunpowder Plot, has rendered his story remarkable. William percy, third son of Henry, eighth Earl of Northumberland, is recorded as a man of learning and genius, who lived retired at Oxford many years; and dying there, was buried ln christ-church Cathedral May 28, 1648, having never married.
