  This selection of Spenser's work, which includes Book One of his most famous poem The Faerie Queene , is representative of the range of his writings. The texts are presented so as to clarify his use of mythological and historical references and to highlight his experimental handling of language and structure. The introduction, commentary and notes are designed to make the challenges of his poetry immediately accessible, as well as to facilitate their further critical exploration. This book should be of interest to students at all levels, teachers and academics of Renaissance literature and poetry.
