4.9/5 (24793 ratings)

Description:This volume appears at a time when much new ground is being broken in the study of Elizabethan poetry and, in particular, of The Faerie Queene, to which a third of this collection is devoted. With no generally accepted criteria for evaluating Elizabethan poetry in the present-day world, criticism of the period must continually return to basic problems of analysis and evaluation. In this collection of twenty-one essays, leading critics including C.S. Lewis, G. Wilson Knight, A.S.P. Woodhouse, Rosemond Tuve, and a number of younger critics and scholars consider fundamental critical questions as they illuminate the assumptions, the variety, and the achievement of the non-dramatic poetry of the Elizabethan era. Discussion centers first on rhetoric and poetic style, then turns to individual poets, poems, and genres. Various essays treat problems of convention, iconography, and the resources of English verse.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
