Edmund Spenser s "The Faerie Queene" is among the most important
literary products of the Elizabethan age, and the vast sweep of its
moral, political and social concerns tells us more about the age
than any other work. This volume, first published in 1989, offers
detailed readings of each of the poem s seven books, along with
introductory chapters on Spenser s career, and the roots of the
poem in the English and continental traditions. Humphrey Tonkin
pays particular attention to the work s political and cultural role
and its contribution to the development of Elizabethan ideology. A
comprehensive analysis, this reissue will be of particular value to
literature students and academics alike. "
