This volume presents The Shepheards Calender and its glosses as they appeared in 1597, with the extensive “Various Readings” from earlier quartos (1579–1591) preserved and annotated. Edited to reproduce the 1597 text in near‑authentic form, it also offers a Life, a glossary, notes, and illustrations to help readers understand the poems in their historical context.

Inside, you’ll find careful editorial work that records variant readings, explains textual choices, and provides scholarly apparatus to illuminate the pastoral verse. The edition also includes facsimiles of original wood‑cut illustrations and relevant plates where available, making it valuable for study of Spenser’s early work and its reception.

Notes and illustrations that connect the poem to its Glossary and historical settings.

Facsimiles and plates that reproduce the visual material from key editions.

Ideal for readers of early English poetry, Spenser scholars, and students seeking a richly annotated, historically grounded edition.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a literary analysis of The Shepheardes Calender, providing both a modern English translation and a comprehensive explication of various readings across editions from its first printing in 1579 to 1597. It explores this collection of twelve eclogues in their literary and historical context, arguing that even in its time the text resonated with both scholarly and popular audiences. The author suggests adepth of thought and varied levels of poetic technique that the work has not been previously given credit for, presenting a thorough and thought-provoking study of the work's themes, language, and significant literary impact beyond its more well-known contemporary, Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781333304171_0
