Selected Essays on George Gascoigne (Routledge Studies in Renaissance and Early Modern Worlds of Knowledge)

Gillian Austen

4.9/5 (24511 ratings)

Description:This collection of essays situates George Gascoigne in context as the pre-eminent writer of the early part of Queen Elizabeth's reign. His ceaseless experimentation was hugely influential on those later Elizabethans - including Spenser, Sidney and Shakespeare - who represent the great flowering of the English literary renaissance. Gascoigne rarely returned to a genre, writing prose fiction, blank verse, plays, sonnets, narrative verse, courtly entertainments, satire, and many other literary forms, and the later Elizabethans were fully aware of his significance.These essays are organised into three main sections: influences upon Gascoigne, such as Skelton; Gascoigne's influence on others, including Spenser; and finally a reassessment of his critical neglect and the story behind his marginalised status in the English literary canon. As only the second multi-authored essay collection on Gascoigne, this book makes a valuable contribution to our understanding of this important and often misunderstood writer.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
