"Sonnets were invented in Italy before Shakespeare’s time."
Briefly: the sonnet form developed in Italy in the 13th–14th centuries (often credited to poets of the Sicilian School and later refined by Petrarch). Shakespeare later adapted the form into the English (Shakespearean) sonnet in the late 16th century.
