Book Synopsis Spenser, Milton, and the Redemption of the Epic Hero by : Christopher Bond
Download or read book Spenser, Milton, and the Redemption of the Epic Hero written by Christopher Bond and published by University of Delaware. This book was released on 2011-04-29 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the interplay of theology and poetics in the three great epics of early modern England, the Faerie Queene, Paradise Lost, and Paradise Regained. Bond examines how Spenser and Milton adapted the pattern of dual heroism developed in classical and Medieval works. Challenging the opposition between 'Calvinist,' 'allegorical' Spenser and 'Arminian,' 'dramatic' Milton, this book offers a new understanding of their doctrinal and literary affinities within the European epic tradition.
Book Synopsis Milton, Spenser and The Chronicles of Narnia by : Elizabeth Baird Hardy
Download or read book Milton, Spenser and The Chronicles of Narnia written by Elizabeth Baird Hardy and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2006-12-27 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1950, Clive Staples Lewis published the first in a series of children's stories that became The Chronicles of Narnia. The now vastly popular Chronicles are a widely known testament to the religious and moral principles that Lewis embraced in his later life. What many readers and viewers do not know about the Chronicles is that a close reading of the seven-book series reveals the strikingly effective influences of literary sources as diverse as George MacDonald's fantastic fiction and the courtly love poetry of the High Middle Ages. Arguably the two most influential sources for the series are Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queen and John Milton's Paradise Lost. Lewis was so personally intrigued by these two particular pieces of literature that he became renowned for his scholarly studies of both Milton and Spenser. This book examines the important ways in which Lewis so clearly echoes The Faerie Queen and Paradise Lost, and how the elements of each work together to convey similar meanings. Most specifically, the chapters focus on the telling interweavings that can be seen in the depiction of evil, female characters, fantastic and symbolic landscapes and settings, and the spiritual concepts so personally important to C.S. Lewis.
Book Synopsis Milton's Spenser by : Maureen Quilligan
Download or read book Milton's Spenser written by Maureen Quilligan and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Maureen Quilligan here examines Spenser's Faerie Queene and Milton's Paradise Lost in an attempt to define the means by which they move their readers, through the power of language, to make ethical and political choices. Quilligan addresses questions that deepen our understanding of the social instrumentality of these epic poems: How do the writers make rhetorical appeals to their readers? How can the reader's interpreting presence be detected in the text? How do Spenser and Milton address arguments to readers specifically in terms of their gender? Asserting that Milton and Spenser were extraordinarily sensitive to the presence of the reader in their construction of narrative, Quilligan looks closely at Milton's appropriation of Spenser's techniques for implicating the reader's self-consciousness in the interpretation of the text. She demonstrates that both Milton and Spenser address specific political arguments to an identifiably female reader, and elevate sexual intimacy to the status of an epic subject"--Jacket.

Book Synopsis Imagining Death in Spenser and Milton by : E. Bellamy
Download or read book Imagining Death in Spenser and Milton written by E. Bellamy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-09-29 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagining Death in Spenser and Milton assembles a collection of essays on the compelling topic of death in two monumental representatives of the early modern canon, Edmund Spenser and John Milton. The volume draws its impetus from the conviction that death is a central, yet curiously understudied, preoccupation for Spenser and Milton, contending that death - in all its early modern reformations and deformations - is an indispensable backdrop for any attempt to articulate the relationship between Spenser and Milton.

Book Synopsis Medusa's Mirrors by : Julia M. Walker
Download or read book Medusa's Mirrors written by Julia M. Walker and published by University of Delaware Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of selfhood in Renaissance texts constitutes a scholarly and critical debate of almost unmanageable proportions. The author of this work begins by questioning the strategies with which male writers depict powerful women. Although Spenser's Britomart, Shakespeare's Cleopatra, and Milton's Eve figure selfhood very differently and to very different ends, they do have two significant elements in common: mirrors and transformations that diminish the power of the female self.

Book Synopsis The Politics of Melancholy from Spenser to Milton by : Adam Kitzes
Download or read book The Politics of Melancholy from Spenser to Milton written by Adam Kitzes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the so-called Age of Melancholy, many writers invoked both traditional and new conceptualizations of the disease in order to account for various types of social turbulence, ranging from discontent and factionalism to civil war. Writing about melancholy became a way to explore both the causes and preventions of political disorder, on both specific and abstract levels. Thus, at one and the same moment, a writer could write about melancholy to discuss specific and ongoing political crises and to explore more generally the principles which generate political conflicts in the first place. In the course of developing a traditional discourse of melancholy of its own, English writers appropriated representations of the disease - often ineffectively - in order to account for the political turbulence during the civil war and Interregnum periods
