1897réf. 028708J.M. Dent: London 1897. Limited Edition. In two volumes limited to 1250 copies after which the type was distributed. Continuous pagination. This beautiful set was published by J.M. Dent in 1897 following their 1893 edition of Malory's Morte D'Arthur illustrated by Aubrey Beardsley. This was a major work issued as a companion to the Beardsley Malory which was now pictured and decorated by Louis Fairfax-Muckley whose magnificent illustrations recall Beardsley's though lacking the erotic images in the borders. Some of the decorative vegetation Faix fax-Muckley used for instance is reminiscent of that found in Dent's Morte D'Arthur though his illustrations are also more consistent with the depiction of the characters in the text see the image of the Redcross Knight as he fights the dragon. In addition to the border nicely populated by dragons the image is partially enclosed by a form of the Gothic bracket that the manuals describe. Bound by Birdsall in ¾ brown Morocco over cloth raised bands lettered and fully decorated in gilt top edges gilt all others uncut marbled endpapers some chipping to heads the original gilt decorated covers were bound in at the rear of the books.

1859réf. FB197 /Str shlfRed leather binding with gilt lettering and raised banding on the spine. All edges gilt. This book also has "Epithalamion" added. The Faery Queene is an English epic poem by Edmund Spenser. Books I–III were first published in 1590 then republished in 1596 together with books IV–VI. The Faerie Queene is notable for its form: at over 36000 lines and over 4000 stanzas it is one of the longest poems in the English language; it is also the work in which Spenser invented the verse form known as the Spenserian stanza. On a literal level the poem follows several knights as a means to examine different virtues and though the text is primarily an allegorical work it can be read on several levels of allegory including as praise or later criticism of Queen Elizabeth I. In Spenser's "Letter of the Authors" he states that the entire epic poem is "cloudily enwrapped in Allegorical devices" and that the aim of publishing The Faerie Queene was to "fashion a gentleman or noble person in virtuous and gentle discipline". Spenser presented the first three books of The Faerie Queene to Elizabeth I in 1589 probably sponsored by Sir Walter Raleigh. The poem was a clear effort to gain court favour and as a reward Elizabeth granted Spenser a pension for life amounting to £50 a year though there is no further evidence that Elizabeth I ever read any of the poem. This royal patronage elevated the poem to a level of success that made it Spenser's defining work. Edmund Spenser 1552/1553 – 13 January 1599 was an English poet best known for The Faerie Queene an epic poem and fantastical allegory celebrating the Tudor dynasty and Elizabeth I. He is recognized as one of the premier craftsmen of nascent Modern English verse and is often considered one of the greatest poets in the English language. Though Spenser was well-read in classical literature scholars have noted that his poetry does not rehash tradition but rather is distinctly his. This individuality may have resulted to some extent from a lack of comprehension of the classics. Spenser strove to emulate such ancient Roman poets as Virgil and Ovid whom he studied during his schooling but many of his best-known works are notably divergent from those of his predecessors. The language of his poetry is purposely archaic reminiscent of earlier works such as The Canterbury Tales of Geoffrey Chaucer and Il Canzoniere of Francesco Petrarca whom Spenser greatly admired. An Anglican and a devotee of the Protestant Queen Elizabeth Spenser was particularly offended by the anti-Elizabethan propaganda that some Catholics circulated. Like most Protestants near the time of the Reformation Spenser saw a Catholic church full of corruption and he determined that it was not only the wrong religion but the anti-religion. This sentiment is an important backdrop for the battles of The Faerie Queene. Spenser was called "the Poet's Poet" by Charles Lamb and was admired by John Milton William Blake William Wordsworth John Keats Lord Byron Alfred Tennyson and others. Among his contemporaries Walter Raleigh wrote a commendatory poem to The Faerie Queene in 1590 in which he claims to admire and value Spenser's work more so than any other in the English language. John Milton in his Areopagitica mentions "our sage and serious poet Spenser whom I dare be known to think a better teacher than Scotus or Aquinas". In the eighteenth century Alexander Pope compared Spenser to "a mistress whose faults we see but love her with them all." Routedge Warnes. hardcover
