Description

Explore a new perspective on classical influence in Spenser and Ovid by Syrithe Pugh. Published by Routledge, this scholarly work provides the first sustained account of Ovid's presence within the Spenser canon. By uncovering new evidence, Pugh reveals the thematic and formal debts that many of Spenser's poems owe to Ovid. This study offers a fresh reading that challenges existing New Historicist assumptions. It contests the traditional view that Virgil serves as Spenser's primary classical model. Furthermore, it questions the long-held idea of Spenser acting as an imperial propagandist for Elizabeth I. Instead, the text focuses on how an informed understanding of Ovid's entire body of work changes our view of Spenser's poetic development. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars of ancient history, civilization, and English literature who want to understand the deep connections between these two influential authors.
