The poetry of Edmund Spenser is among the most wide-ranging and
allusive ever written. This work offers a detailed literary guide
to the life, works, and influence of one of England's greatest
poets, and summarizes the scholarship in this area since the
publication of the Spenser Variorum 50 years ago. Comprehensive in
scope and international in coverage, this work contains over 700
alphabetical entries by 422 contributors from 20 countries. Entries
fall into three categories: synoptic essays on individual poems and
on the major biographical, historical and social issues, articles
providing a full collection of information on a particular topic
and its relation to the tradition and articles providing
information relevant to the current state of Spenser studies.
Throughout the work, Spenser's place in the English literary
tradition is fully explored, and in particular his relationship to
the minor Elizabethan poets is stressed. The volume also examines
Spenser's reputation in other countries, such as France and Japan,
and the effects of his influence on writers world-wide.
