Book excerpt: In 'The Faery Queen and Her Knights: Stories Retold from Edmund Spenser,' readers are presented with a vibrant pastiche of literature that bridges the chasm between classic Elizabethan poetry and the sensibilities of a later audience. This anthology, through its ingenious retelling of stories from Edmund Spenser's seminal work, The Faerie Queene, celebrates the enduring themes of virtue, valor, and chivalry, showcasing a variety of narrative styles.

The anthology stands out for its ability to make Renaissance literature engaging and relevant to contemporary readers, providing a seamless blend of Spenser's intricate allegories with more accessible prose. The backgrounds of Edmund Spenser and Alfred John Church meld within this collection, embodying a unique dialogue between the 16th and the 19th centuries. Spenser, an iconic figure of the English Renaissance, and Church, a distinguished scholar recognized for his adaptations of classical texts, together facilitate an intertemporal collaboration. Their collective expertise enriches the anthology, offering insights into the evolution of literary expressions and thematic interpretations across ages. This anthology aligns with cultural and literary movements that have celebrated the adaptation and retelling of classical literature, making it a significant medium for understanding historical and ethical paradigms through the lens of narrative art. 'The Faery Queen and Her Knights' invites readers into a literary pilgrimage from the Elizabethan era to the Victorian age, encouraging engagements with the texts that have shaped English literature. This collection is recommended for those who seek to explore the depth of Spensers allegories in a new light, providing an entry point for readers unfamiliar with Elizabethan English, and enriching for scholars interested in the interplay of historical contexts and literary forms. It is a testament to the timeless relevance of classical literature and its capacity to inspire across generations, making it an essential addition to the library of any literature aficionado.

Download or read book The Faerie Queene written by Edmund Spenser and published by Standard Ebooks. This book was released on 2022-12-22T07:23:36Z with total page 1253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Faerie Queene is Edmund Spenser’s magnum opus, composed for Queen Elizabeth I. The epic poem is incomplete, as only six of the intended twelve books were published before his death. Despite that, it stands as one of the longest poems in the English language. During its composition, Spenser invented a new type of verse form: the Spenserian stanza. The form consists of eight lines in iambic pentameter followed by a line in iambic hexameter, with the rhyme scheme ababbcbcc. He purposely included archaic language and spelling to make the work feel comparable to the Arthurian myths written during the Middle Ages. Spenser used Aristotle’s list of virtues as the foundation for his work. Each of the six books follows a different knight who symbolize a unique virtue: the Knight of the Redcross for Holiness, Guyon for Temperance, Britomartis for Chastity, Cambell and Telamond for Friendship, Artegall for Justice, and Calidore for Courtesy. Fragments of an unfinished seventh book—the “Cantos of Mutability”—would have centered on the virtue of Constancy. In a letter to Sir Walter Raleigh, Spenser reveals that King Arthur represents the virtue of Magnificence, “the perfection of all the rest.” The first book opens with the Redcross Knight on a quest ordered by Queen Gloriana to defeat a horrible dragon. Traveling with him is Lady Una and her dwarf servant, who are leading the knight to the land where the dragon dwells. A terrible storm forces the travelers to shelter in the nearest cave—and a monster’s den. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transported to a medieval realm of magic and myth, a World War II resistance fighter undertakes a perilous quest in this classic fantasy adventure. Holger Carlsen is a rational man of science. A Danish engineer working with the Resistance to defeat the Nazis, he is wounded during an engagement with the enemy and awakens in an unfamiliar parallel universe where the forces of Law are locked in eternal combat with the forces of Chaos. Against a medieval backdrop, brave knights must take up arms against magical creatures of myth and faerie, battling dragons, trolls, werewolves, and giants. Though Holger has no recollection of this world, he discovers he is already well-known throughout the lands, a hero revered as a Champion of Law. He finds weaponry and armor awaiting him—precisely fitted to his form—and a shield with three hearts and three lions emblazoned upon it. As he journeys through a realm filled with wonders in search of the key to his past, Holger will call upon the scientific knowledge of his home dimension, the destinies of both worlds hanging in the balance. Before Thomas Covenant, Roger Zelazny’s Amber, and J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings, the great Poul Anderson introduced readers to the Middle World and the legendary hero Ogier the Dane. Inventive and exciting, Three Hearts and Three Lions is a foray into fantasy that employs touches of science fiction from an award-winning master of the speculative.

Book excerpt: THE FANTASY BOOKTOK SENSATION! For fans of Uprooted and For the Wolf comes a dark, lushly gothic fantasy about a maiden who must unleash the monster within to save her kingdom—but the monster in her head isn't the only threat lurking. Elspeth needs a monster. The monster might be her. Elspeth Spindle needs more than luck to stay safe in the eerie, mist-locked kingdom she calls home—she needs a monster. She calls him the Nightmare, an ancient, mercurial spirit trapped in her head. He protects her. He keeps her secrets. But nothing comes for free, especially magic. When Elspeth meets a mysterious highwayman on the forest road, her life takes a drastic turn. Thrust into a world of shadow and deception, she joins a dangerous quest to cure the kingdom of the dark magic infecting it. Except the highwayman just so happens to be the King’s own nephew, Captain of the Destriers…and guilty of high treason. He and Elspeth have until Solstice to gather twelve Providence Cards—the keys to the cure. But as the stakes heighten and their undeniable attraction intensifies, Elspeth is forced to face her darkest secret yet: the Nightmare is slowly, darkly, taking over her mind. And she might not be able to stop him.
