This revised and enlarged Fourth Edition expands and improves on
the strengths of the previous three editions. All selections are
based on early and established texts, fully glossed, and carefully
annotated. An Editor's Note follows each section. This new edition
addresses the shifts in scholarly and critical interests in Spenser
studies since 1993 as well as access provided by new technology.
Notes reflect the information that Spenser's best readers would
have at their fingertips without spoiling the pleasure of reading
Spenser for the first time. Mother Hubberds Tale from the 1591
Complaints is newly included. The Ruines of Rome, Spenser's
translation of Joachim Du Bellay's Antiquitez, is also added to
give readers the chance to see Spenser at work as a translator and
to give the English perspective on Rome. Sixteen critical essays
have been added to supplement fourteen earlier commentaries. Among
the perspectives new to the Fourth Edition are those of C. S Lewis,
Martha Craig, Gordon Teskey, Jeff Dolven, David Wilson-Okamura, and
Jennifer Summit. In keeping with the last edition, critical pieces
on the House of Busyrane, Spenser's pastoral, Muiopotmos, and
Amoretti are grouped together to facilitate classroom discussion.
New selections from Jane Grogan, Andrew D. Hadfield, Colin Burrow,
Lynn Staley, Lauren Silberman, and A. E. B. Coldiron join the
readings on House of Busyrane, and "Amoretti" grows with selections
by A. Leigh DeNeef and Helena Mennie Shire. A Chronology of
Spenser's life and an extensive Bibliography are also included.
