About this product
Product Information
Edmund Spenser's innovative poetic works have a central place in the canon of English literature. Yet he is remembered as a morally flawed, self-interested sycophant; in Karl Marx's words, 'Elizabeth's arse-kissing poet'. In this vibrant and vivid biography - the first for 60 years - Andrew Hadfield finds a more complex and subtle Spenser.

[Hadfield] brings to the biography a nuanced critical intelligence, and above all, a capacity to remind the reader how surprising Spenser was., "Hadfield's Spenser is revelatory and performed with authentic scholarship and drive". --Harold Bloom "Even the most serious readers will learn more than they might imagine about a colorful, seminal era." --Publishers Weekly--- Best new Books "His book will be the new standard scholarly biography of Spenser, and is essential for literary scholarship of the era." --Library Journal "A book that those studying Spenser will want to consult frequently...Essential." --Choice, "Hadfield's Spenser is revelatory and performed with authentic scholarship and drive". --Harold Bloom "Even the most serious readers will learn more than they might imagine about a colorful, seminal era." --Publishers Weekly--- Best new Books " Andrew Hadfield displays a rare understanding of the poet's ambiguous legacy, of his relationship to history and then to art. Mr. Hadfield makes no simple judgments about the connection or disconnection between beauty and cruelty, but he offers a nuanced and clever reading of the work and the man that made the work". Colm Toibin, Books of the Year, Wall Street Journal .
