Worldmaking Spenser reexamines the role of Spenser's work in English history and highlights the richness and complexity of his understanding of place.

The authors define Spenser as the maker of poetic worlds, of the Elizabethan world, and of the modern world. The essays look at Spenser from three distinct vantage points. The contributors explore his literary.
