Spenser's Faerie Queene, Band 1

Cover
Clarendon Press - 518 Seiten
The Faerie Queene is one of the longest poems in the English language; it is also the work in which Spenser invented the verse form known as the Spenserian stanza. On a literal level, the poem follows several knights as a means to examine different virtues, and though the text is primarily an allegorical work, it can be read on several levels of allegory, including as praise (or, later, criticism) of Queen Elizabeth I.--Adapted from Wikipedia.
