A thorough and scholarly study of Spenser and Shakespeare and their
contrary artistry, covering themes of theology, psychology, the
depictions of passion and intellect, moral counsel, family
hierarchy, self-love, temptation, folly, allegory, female heroism,
the supernatural and much more. Renaissance psychologies examines
the distinct and polarised emphasis of these two towering
intellects and writers of the early modern period. It demonstrates
how pervasive was the influence of Spenser on Shakespeare, as in
the "playful metamorphosis of Gloriana into Titania" in A Midsummer
Night's Dream and its return from Spenser's moralizing allegory to
the Ovidian spirit of Shakespeare's comedy. It will appeal to
students and lecturers in Spenser studies, Renaissance poetry and
the wider fields of British literature, social and cultural
history, ethics and theology. -- .
