Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book is a compelling investigation of a major writer's advent, reception, employment, growth, and influence in an age other than his own. Frushell explores many pertinent and largely unexamined primary documents, and this study serves as a primer for future critical scholarship as well as a guide to crucial primary material. A remarkable feature of this work is its three bibliographies, with the third giving a full account of well over 300 Spenser imitations and adaptations from the eighteenth century.
