3/12/2025 - The Sonnet on April 15, 2025

On Tuesday, April 15, 2025 from 2-3:30pm on Zoom, join us for a virtual program and learn more about sonnets.

Join us as we explore one of the most frequently used poetic forms--the Sonnet--and trace the history of these 14-line gems from their beginnings in Italy during the early Renaissance to the modern period.

Led by Dr. Bill Thierfelder, a retired college professor who taught a variety of Arts and Humanities courses for 32 years at several New York universities and colleges, including St. John's University and Dowling College. He holds a Ph.D. in English, with minors in theater, art history and music history.

Like all Southbury Public Library programs, this program is free to attend and open to anyone regardless of town of residency. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Southbury Public Library. Registration is required. Zoom invitation links will be sent via email on the day of the program.
