AB  - Examines both early modern and modern musical adaptations of Sonnets, discussing whether a musical version "can still be considered poetic in the conventional form, or whether it has to be assessed from the viewpoint of a different and fresh aesthetic, more from the perspective of adaptation praxis." Also discusses "what constitutes this notion of musicality inherent in Shakespeare's sonnets," and argues that "articulation, accentuation, phrasing and other aspects of prosody in the adaptation and consequently the sung delivery, significantly affect the interpretation and reception of the sonnet when transformed to the new medium." English summary, 220.
