Summary "Spenser" by R. W. Church is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on the life and contributions of Edmund Spenser, a pivotal figure in English literature credited with significant developments in poetry during the English Renaissance. The narrative traces Spenser's journey from his early life through his literary accomplishments and his position in the cultural milieu of his time. The opening of the book begins by setting the historical context of Spenser's life, emphasizing his role as a trailblazer in English poetry, notably after the Reformation. It discusses his birth around the mid-16th century and provides insights into his educational background, particularly at Cambridge, and the literary environment that shaped him. The text highlights his early influences, the cultural transitions of England, and his initial poetic endeavors, which would eventually culminate in the creation of major works such as "The Faery Queen". This section establishes the foundation for understanding Spenser's enduring impact on English literature and the complexities of his personal and professional journey.
