Ordinarily I don’t publish so much poetry at Theoria-press, and instead try to provide mostly essays with an odd poem or sonnet occasionally interspersed among them.
I was thinking more about the language and style of time periods. Not suggesting direct influence by any means. I mostly read 19th century into modernism so the floral, song-like language really stands out. I was unaware that the roots of Petrarchan sonnets predate almost all of my reading. 66 and still learning.

Oh! Yes, we’ll John Keats is my favorite poet of all, after Homer and Shakespeare
You’re in the deep end of the pool and apparently quite comfortably afloat.
thanks
Just started in on Horace Walpole. Am I wrong to think there’s a connection here in the lush descriptives?
It depends what you have in mind with the word “connection” but I have never read any of his work
