The idea
He wrote sonnets in the sequence tradition, comedies exploiting the casting conventions, and tragedies in blank verse. Unit fifteen treated him as an exam problem in his own right. Within this band he is the writer most likely to appear and the one already best prepared.
In practice
Sonnets, comedies, tragedies, one writer.
Where people slip
Unit fifteen prepared him already.
