Description
"Shakespeare and Spenser: Attractive opposites is a much-needed volume that brings together ten original essays on the relations between Spenser and Shakespeare. There has been much noteworthy work on the linguistic borrowings of Shakespeare from Spenser, but the subject has never before been treated systematically; and the linguistic borrowings lead to broader-scale borrowings and influences which are treated here. An additional feature of the book is that for the first time a large bibliography of previous work is offered which will be of the greatest help to those who follow up the opportunities offered by this collection." "The introduction discusses the nature of the linguistic influence of Spenser on Shakespeare and suggests that there is still much to say. The papers consider Spenser's influence on Shakespearean allegory, characterisation, satire, on A Midsummer Night's Dream, Anthony and Cleopatra, King Lear, Hamlet, Richard III, The Winter's Tale, the late plays, and on Shakespearean Romances. At the same time plentiful light is, naturally, thrown on Spenser."--Jacket.
