Book Description
The Faerie Queene is a scholarly masterpiece that has influenced, inspired, and challenged generations of writers, readers and scholars since its completion in 1596. Hamilton's edition is itself, a masterpiece of scholarship and close reading. It is now the standard edition for all readers of Spenser. The entire work is revised, and the text of The Faerie Queene itself has been freshly edited, the first such edition since the 1930s. This volume also contains additional original material, including a letter to Raleigh, commendatory verses and dedicatory sonnets, chronology of Spenser's life and works and provides a compilation of list of characters and their appearances in The Faerie Queene.

Wherefore the Lady, which Irena hight,1 Did to the Faerie Queene her way addresse, To whom complayning her afliicted plight, She her besought of gratious redresse: That soveraine queene, that mightie emperesse, Whose glorie is to aide all suppliants pore, And of weake princes to be patronesse, Chose Artegall to right her to restore; For that to her he seem'd best skild in righteous lore.
