Jane Grogan

Exemplary Spenser (eBook, ePUB)

Visual and Poetic Pedagogy in The Faerie Queene

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Exemplary Spenser analyses the reading experience of The Faerie Queene, as it is construed through the didactic poetics espoused in the Letter to Ralegh. Grogan pays close attention to Spenser's interrogation of visual as well as literary paradigms of knowledge and moral learning, and to his influences, including Sidney, Plutarch, and, importantly, Xenophon.
