Description
Details of the discovery of the poet's code and why it eluded so many others. Codes reveal the allegory of the soul that is embodied in the sonnets, with the higher soul represented by the young man and the lower soul represented by the Dark Lady, as outlined in Sonnet 144. The central code is the very numbering of the sonnets, which, numbers translated into Hebrew letters (1=Aleph, 2=Beth, etc) spell Hebrew words which all too often dictate the theme of the sonnet, e.g., number 18 spell Hebrew word Chai, "life," which is the subject of the poem. The book analyzes each of the 154 poems to discern its meaning and the elements of the code represented within it. All 154 sonnets are presented in the spelling and approximate layout of the original 1609 Publication.
