Book Description
Excerpt from A Concordance to the Poems of Edmund Spenser Spenser is not a popular poet. He has never been in any marked degree even fashionable. Milton, content with fit audience though few, ranked in Pope's and Johnson's time with Shakespeare and the musical glasses. Ladies read his poetry in their boudoirs, and chatted about its beauties in company - absurdly enough no doubt. But such admiration could never befall Spenser. His mate rials, quality, and intention forbid that a multitude of readers should ever gather about him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
This book is the first ever concordance to the rhymes of Spenser’s epic. It gives the reader unparalleled access to the formal nuts and bolts of this massive poem: the rhymes which he used to structure its intricate stanzas. As well as the main concordance to the rhymes, the volume features a wealth of ancillary materials, which will be of value to both professional Spenserians and students, including distribution lists and an alphabetical listing of all the words in The Faerie Queene. The volume breaks new ground by including two studies by Richard Danson Brown and J. B. Lethbridge, so that the reader is given provocative analyses alongside the raw data about Spenser as a rhymer. Brown considers the reception of rhyme, theoretical models and how Spenser’s rhymes may be reading for meaning. Lethbridge in contrast discusses the formulaic and rhetorical character of the rhymes.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Subject-Index to the Poems of Edmund Spenser Since this is not primarily a word-index, but a subject-index, I have not thought it necessary to record all the variations of spelling. The student who is interested in this feature of Spenser's poetry may find what he seeks in the Concordance. For head-words and quota tions I have normalized and modernized the spelling, in general using the index-form preferred by the New English Dictionary. Occasion ally, however, when I have felt that something was to be gained by preserving the exact form of Spenser's language, I have not hesitated to do so from any fear of inconsistency. Words invented by Spenser, for which there is no modern equivalent, are entered under the spelling most commonly used. Frequent cross-references are employed, so that little difficulty should be experienced in locating a word. The allegory of the Faery Queen has proved rather difficult to manage. It has not seemed necessary to identify every character of the poem, as some would do, with one or other of the figures who made the Elizabethan period illustrious. Allegorical interpretations are, however, admitted whenever there seems to be sufficient evidence to support them. Explanations by the compiler, whenever they do not immediately follow the head-word, are enclosed in parentheses.
