This volume completes the first edition of the collected works of
the early modern poet and translator Sir Richard Fanshawe, and
contains Fanshawe's translation of The Lusiad of Camoes, the single
work which affirms his importance in the history of translation.
The translation of the Baroque play Querer por solo Querer from the
court of Philip IV of Spain is also given, as is Fanshawe's Latin
rendering of parts of The Lusiad, discovered by the present editor
and here printed for the first time. As in Volume I, copy texts for
The Lusiads and Querer por solo Querer are manually-corrected
printed texts with provenances in Fanshawe's family and immediate
circle, thus representing the works in a form which is as close as
possible to Fanshawe's final intentions. The Specimen rerum a
Lusitanis is taken from a presentation manuscript compiled under
Fanshawe's direction. This volume also features an an expert essay
on the translation of Camoes, contributed by Professor Roger
Walker.
