Abstract
The present study deals with the stylistic analysis of Sonnet 29, written by a very eminent poet, dramatist, and sonneteer, William Shakespeare. This analysis has been done keeping several categories in mind, such as graphological, grammatical, phonological, morphological, and metrical analysis, to study in depth the linguistic elements of Sonnet 29 along with what the poet wants to convey through portraying a state of hopelessness, failure, melancholy, and later positivity in the presence of his beloved. Stylistic techniques are used to unveil the hidden beauty of the poet’s sentiments and writing technique. Since stylistics analysis deals with linguistic devices that impart expressive or literary refinement to written discourse, this analysis aids in comprehending how Shakespeare uplifts from negative thoughts to positive ones. This analysis delves into the theme of the sonnet, the poet’s historical background, structural components, linguistic devices, concluding with a conclusion, and references.
