Dedicating his work to Elizabeth I Spenser brilliantly united Arthurian romance and Italian renaissance epic to celebrate the glory of the Virgin Queen. Each book of the poem recounts the quest of a knight to achieve a virtue: the Red Crosse Knight of Holinesse who must slay a dragon and free himself from the witch Duessa; Sir Guyon Knight of Temperance who escapes the Cave of Mammon and destroys Acrasia’s Bowre of Bliss; and the lady-knight Britomart’s search for her Sir Artegall revealed to her in an enchanted mirror. Although composed as a moral and political allegory The Faerie Queene’s magical atmosphere captivated the imaginations of later poets from Milton to the Victorians.This edition includes the letter to Raleigh in which Spenser declares his intentions for his poem the commendatory verses by Spenser’s contemporaries and his dedicatory sonnets to the Elizabethan court and is supplemented by a table of dates and a glossary.</p> Longman hardcover

193411180Eric Partridge 1934. 1st edition. Good/No Jacket. Hard covers no dust jacket Inscribed by the editor on ffep. to Lord Nuffield then a Baronet. A remarkable document prepared by Spenser while serving in Ireland; none too complimentary in parts it constitutes an eye-witness account of the state of late 16th century Ireland in the form of a dialogue between Eudox and Iren. The language is of Shakespearian vintage and is thus a little obscure in places. About a third of the book is taken up with the editor’s Commentary with extensive end-notes. Eric Partridge hardcover
