Spenser: The Faerie Queene


Book Description

The Faerie Queene is a scholarly masterpiece that has influenced, inspired, and challenged generations of writers, readers and scholars since its completion in 1596. Hamilton's edition is itself, a masterpiece of scholarship and close reading. It is now the standard edition for all readers of Spenser. The entire work is revised, and the text of The Faerie Queene itself has been freshly edited, the first such edition since the 1930s. This volume also contains additional original material, including a letter to Raleigh, commendatory verses and dedicatory sonnets, chronology of Spenser's life and works and provides a compilation of list of characters and their appearances in The Faerie Queene.




Spenser, Vol. 2


Book Description

Excerpt from Spenser, Vol. 2: Book II of the Faery Queene Again, as in Canto VIII of the First Book we have the over throw of Orgoglio (that most formidable enemy of the religious character, Pride) by the hand of Arthur; so in Canto VIII of the Second Book we meet the same Prince doing to death the various forms of angry passion and fiery temper, which had all but undone the weakened and prostrate Sir Guyon.
