Selections From Spenser�������s Faery Queene: Books 3-5 is a book that was originally published in 1906 and is written by the renowned English poet and writer, Edmund Spenser. This book is a collection of selected poems from Spenser’s epic poem, The Faerie Queene, specifically from the third, fourth, and fifth books. The Faerie Queene is an allegorical work that tells the story of knights and their quests, and explores themes of virtue, chivalry, and morality. The third book focuses on the adventures of Britomart, a female knight who is searching for her true love. The fourth book follows the journey of Sir Guyon, who is on a quest to destroy the Bower of Bliss, a place of temptation and sin. The fifth book tells the story of Artegal, a knight who represents justice and is on a quest to defeat the tyrant Grantorto. This book presents a selection of Spenser’s most memorable and significant poems from these three books. It includes detailed annotations and explanations of the language and themes, making it accessible to readers who may not be familiar with Spenser’s work. The book also includes an introduction that provides background information on Spenser and his writing, as well as an overview of The Faerie Queene. Overall, Selections From Spenser�������s Faery Queene: Books 3-5 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Spenser’s poetry or in English literature more broadly. It offers a glimpse into the rich and complex world of The Faerie Queene, and provides readers with a deeper understanding of Spenser’s writing and the themes he explored.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
