Spenserian Satire: A Tradition of Indirection by Rachel Hile (English) Hardcover

Description: Spenserian Satire by Rachel Hile Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A detailed study of Spensers poetic legacy, focusing on his reputation as a satirist and his influence on satirical poetry written by his contemporaries. Publisher Description Scholars of Edmund Spenser have focused much more on his accomplishments in epic and pastoral than his work in satire. Scholars of early modern English satire almost never discuss Spenser. However, these critical gaps stem from later developments in the canon rather than any insignificance in Spensers accomplishments and influence on satiric poetry. This book argues that the indirect form of satire developed by Spenser served during and after Spensers lifetime as an important model for other poets who wished to convey satirical messages with some degree of safety. The book connects key Spenserian texts in The Shepheardes Calender and the Complaints volume with poems by a range of authors in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, including Joseph Hall, Thomas Nashe, Tailboys Dymoke, Thomas Middleton and George Wither, to advance the thesis that Spenser was seen by his contemporaries as highly relevant to satire in Elizabethan England. -- .
