Faerie Queene:
Broad Question:
1.
Evaluate the Faerie queene book 1 as a moral
allegory? Complete
2. comment on the major
themes of Faerie queene book 1?
Answer: Fairy Queen
is famous epic of Edmund Spenser. In the epic, the Epic poet craftily
presents The Renaissance and Reformation elements. Though the use of the
elements, the epic poet presents the different type of allegory. As a
result in the epic poem, the epic poet has presented religious, political and
spiritual allegory. The major themes of Faerie Queene are love, religion,
politics, morality and ethics, Justice and judgment, appearances and loyalty.
Now I make my comment on major themes of Faerie Queene in bellow:
Love: If there's one thing that unites this otherwise massive,
unwieldy poem it's love. Whether good or bad, female or male, knight or monster
chances are that love, romance, or sexual desire plays an important role in
every character's actions and identity. Spenser really wants us to think about
how we distinguish between true, life-long love and infatuation and
inconsequential little crushes. Almost every happily ended storyline in the
poem ends with an engagement. In the world of The Faerie Queen, all you need is love.
Religion: Spenser's The Faerie Queene was written at a time when
religious affiliation was seriously important. Religion informs almost every
aspect of The Faerie Queene, from the motivations of the main characters to the
representation of villains… many villains embody some stereotype of other
religions.
Politics: The
Faerie Queene was written during the Reformation, a time of religious and
political controversy. After taking the throne following the death of her
half-sister Mary, Elizabeth changed the official religion of the nation to
Protestantism.[6] The plot of book one is similar to Foxe's Book of Martyrs,
which was about the persecution of the Protestants and how Catholic rule was
unjust.[7] Spenser includes the controversy of Elizabethan church reform within
the epic. Gloriana has godly English knights destroy Catholic continental power
in Books I and V.[8] Spenser also endows many of his villains with "the
worst of what Protestants considered a superstitious Catholic reliance on
deceptive images".[9]
Justice and judgment: Justice is the explicit theme of Book V of the The
Faerie Queene, but it's a topic that is significant throughout the poem.
Judgment in particular is constantly used (and abused!) when characters face
challenging, confusing, and potentially dangerous situations. Since we also
know that appearances can be deceiving in The Faerie Queene, judgment is also
an essential tool to differentiate between the good and the bad, and the true
and the false.
Appearances: Appearances are tricky in The Faerie Queene. There are a
bunch of artificial objects (and even artificial people, like the False
Florimell) floating around. This shows us that becoming overly attached to what
you see, instead of what you know or believe, can often lead down a path that
is no kind of good. But just to keep us on our toes, Spenser throws in some
instances where appearances aren't deceiving. The magic mirror of Merlin, for
example, that shows Britomart the face of her destined love, Arthegall.
Appearances are tricky in this book… because they aren't always tricky.
Loyalty: Loyalty is a particularly important concept in the
universe of The Faerie Queene because it doesn't only govern relationships
between lovers, or between knights who already know each other. It also governs
the bond formed between knights who have just met and don't know each other at
all. We can usually immediately figure out if a knight is a "good
guy" because he immediately assumes a knightly loyalty toward all
well-intentioned knights.
3. Character analysis: Red
cross knight, Lady una, Archimage and Duessa
Answer: Red Cross
Knight: Hero of Book 1. Introduced in the first canto of the poem, he
bears the emblem of Saint George, patron saint of England; a red cross on
a white background is still the flag of England. The Redcross Knight is
declared the real Saint George in Canto X. He also learns that he is of
English ancestry, having been stolen by a Fay and raised in Faerieland. In the
climactic battle of Book 1, Redcrosse slays the dragon that has laid waste to
Eden. He marries Una at the end of Book 1, but brief appearances in Books
2 and 3 show him still questing through the world.
Lady una: Una, the personification of the " True
Church". She travels with the Redcross Knight(who represents ENgland),
Whom she has recruited to save her parents' castle from a dragon. She aslo
defeats Duessa, who represents the "false""(Catholic) church and
the person of Mary, Queen of Scots, in a trial reminiscent of that which ended
in Mary's beheading. Una is also representative of Truth.
Archimago: Archimago, an evil sorcerer who is sent to stop the
knights in the service of the Faerie Queene. Of the Knights, Archimago hates
Redcrosse most of all, hence he is symbolically the nemesis of England.
Duessa: Duessa is "duplicity," the opposite of Una
("Truth"). She is first seen as paramour to the evil knight Sansfoy
("Faithlessness") and lies about her identity to Redcrosse in an
attempt to seduce him. She eventually succeeds in winning Redcrosse's favor and
dragging him into Orgoglio's dungeon, but her efforts are undone by the
intervention of Una and Prince Arthur.
Duessa appears later in
the epic as part of the negative tetrad of Blandamour, Paridell, Ate and
herself. She is put on trial and executed in Book 5.

7. short notes on: House
of holiness, house of pride, The three heathen knight sansfoy, sansjoy and
sanslaw.
House of Holiness: Fairy Queen is famous epic of Edmund Spenser.
In the epic, the Epic poet craftily presents The Renaissance and
Reformation elements. Though the use of the elements, the epic poet presents
the different type of allegory.
The House of Holiness is
the virtuous counterpart to the House of Pride. It is accessed by a narrow path
(cf. Matthew 7:13); the porter is Humility, and the mistress of the House is
Dame Caelia, which means “heavenly.” Whereas the House of Pride was the abode
of the seven deadly sins, the House of Holiness shelter’s Dame Caelia’s daughters,
whose names mean “Faith,” “hope,” and “charity” (the three highest virtues as
recorded in 1 Corinthians 13). The House of Holiness is managed by Caelia, who
has three daughters: Fidelia, Speranza, Charissa.
House of pride: Fairy Queen is famous epic of Edmund Spenser.
In the epic, the Epic poet craftily presents The Renaissance and
Reformation elements. Though the use of the elements, the epic poet presents
the different type of allegory.
A porter, Idleness, leads
Redcrosse along a broad path to the House of Pride, a direct reference to
Matthew 7:13 (“broad is the way that leads to destruction“). Lucifera, mistress
of the House of Pride, is the chief of the seven deadly sins (Pride, Sloth,
Gluttony, Lechery, Avarice, Envy, and Wrath).. Her name is a feminization of
Lucifer, a name for Satan in Christian theology. Satan is said to have
committed the sin of pride when he saw himself as better than his Creator.
Similarly, Lucifera as pride is Redcrosse’s gateway into the other sins; if
Redcrosse is more prone to any sin than others are, it is his pride in his
personal power. Allegorically, we see how an individual’s holiness can become
dangerously like pride if it is focused on the self rather than on God.
The three heathen knight
sansfoy, sansjoy and sansloy: These
troublesome brothers in Book 1 are seriously lacking. Their names literally
mean "without faith" (Sansfoy), "without joy" (Sansjoy),
and "without law" (Sansloy), so it's no wonder they aren't the most
fulfilled trio you've ever met. In the text they're identified as
"Saracens," which is a term usually applied to Muslims, but could
mean anyone in general who didn't believe in Christianity (and during Spenser's
time, people were not particularly tolerant of this). Because these brothers
aren't Christians, Spenser imagines that they therefore must be lacking,
lacking the true faith, and the joy and rules that come with in. Without these
three qualities, the brothers play by their own rules, chasing women and
fighting with knights. For Redcrosse, their main antagonist, grappling with
these brothers represents a confrontation with religious doubt.
1. We can die by it, if
not live by love,
And if unfit for tomb or hearse
Our legend be, it will be fit for verse;
Answer: These line
have been taken from the poem “The Canonization” by John Donne. The
Canonization By John Donne is a metaphysical poet where the poet tags himself
as a lover.
In the third stanza, the
speaker reacts to apparent name-calling on the part of the outsider, insisting
that he and his beloved are “flies” (in the diction of his age, moths or
butterflies) or “tapers” (candles), which gain fullness of life even as they consume
themselves. (Renaissance English poets commonly employed the word “die” as a
sexual pun, based on the folk belief that each orgasm shortened one’s life by a
day.) Likening the physically and spiritually united lovers to the phoenix, a
mythical bird that was thought to erupt into flame and then be resurrected from
its own ashes, the speaker claims that they are proven “mysterious” (in the
spiritual sense) by this ideal love. This constitutes the climax or turning
point of this small drama.
2. So let us melt, and
make no noise,
No tear-floods, nor
sigh-tempests move;
'Twere profanation of our joys
To tell the laity our love.
Answer: These line have
been taken from the poem “A Valediction Forbidding Mourning” by John Donne.
Forbidding Mourning” begins with an image of death and mourning. In the
poem of second stanza use of the word
“melt” in the first line evokes an image of warmth and of gradual motion rather
than the more explosive “tear-floods” and “sigh-tempests”. These comparisons
both take two things often related to mourning and sadness (tears and sighs)
and turn them into stormy, grandiose expressions which seem unrealistic when
examined through the lens of what a normal human can accomplish. No human can
create a flood with their eyes or a storm with their breath. The following two
lines, “’Twere profanation of our joys/To tell the laity of our love” use
several words which begin the process of elevating the speaker’s love to
sacredness. The speaker uses the word profanation, a word which typically means
the desecration of something sacred or the degradation of anything worthy of
veneration. In this case, their “joys” are the thing which would be defiled, a
sentiment which elevates their love beyond the human sphere. The speaker also
uses “laity”, which refers to anyone who is not a clergyman. In this way, it
would be defilement of their joys to speak of their love as anything but holy.
3. Our Two soules therefore
which are one
Through I must goe, endure
not yet
A breach but an expansion
Like gold to ayery
thinnesse beate
Answer: These line have
been taken from the poem “A Valediction Forbidding Mourning” by John Donne.
Forbidding Mourning” begins with an image of death and mourning. This poem is typical of Donne's work in that
it is set on a particular dramatic occasion. The speaker, a man about to take a
long journry, says goodbye("Valediction") to the woman he loves,
telling her not to cry or feel sad("Forbidding mourning").
Now we are hot and heavy with Donne's
theology. He is practically quoting the Old Testament book of Genesis here,
which establishes marriage as making two individuals into one unit. Like any
good metaphysical poet, Donne doesn't shy away from a paradox. He deliberately uses the The
poet considering there parting not as breach rather as expansion because the
souls are compared to a lump of gold beaten thinner than paper. Their
separation does not resemble a division, but instead an expansion into a thin
golden foil.
4. Such wilt thoy be to mee who
must
Like Thother foot,
obliquely runne
Thy firmnes makes my
circle just
And makes me end where I
begunne
Answer: These line have
been taken from the poem “A Valediction Forbidding Mourning” by John Donne.
Forbidding Mourning” begins with an image of death and mourning. This poem is typical of Donne's work in that
it is set on a particular dramatic occasion. The speaker, a man about to take a
long journry, says goodbye("Valediction") to the woman he loves,
telling her not to cry or feel sad("Forbidding mourning").
The end of the poem spells out the metaphor
and winds down the poem with more praise for his wife. Line thirty-three
connects the fixed foot firmly with his wife. This stanza is similar to what is
called the 'turn' in a sonnet (Donne wrote lots and lots of those). Everything
before the turn is metaphorical and convoluted, but now at the end he makes
everything plain. Of course Donne means that the center foot makes a circle
accurate and perfectly round, but "just" also carries with it a legal
or even moral connotation. It's possible that Donne is saying that the
faithfulness of his wife will keep him from straying while he is away.
The last line has a nice
ring of finality to it. We've really come full circle. Seriously though, this
line is Donne's final promise, his final reason why they shouldn't mourn at his
parting: if they are both firm and strong, he will be back soon enough—right
where he belongs.
- The Description of major battles Red Cross Knight
and Dragon?
Answer: Fairy Queen is famous epic of
Edmund Spenser. In the epic, the Epic poet craftily presents The
Renaissance and Reformation elements. Though the use of the elements, the epic
poet presents the different type of allegory. As a result in the epic
poem, the epic poet has presented religious, political and spiritual allegory.
From the history of
the Epic we come to know that Una is a daughter of a king whose country has
been ruined by a dragon. Her life is also under threat. So, his daughter
Una comes to Queen Gluriana to seek help and her father's Kingdom. As result, Queen Gluriana employees The Red
Cross night to saved the ruined Kingdom.
Upon entering Una’s country, the
pair see a huge dragon and a high tower that holds captive Una’s parents. Red
Cross and the dragon immediately begin their fight, which lasts an entire day.
Finally, Red Cross is able to injure the dragon, but, in return, the dragon
breathes fire on Red Cross, burning him in his armor and causing him to fall
into a spring. Believing he is victorious, the dragon rests as night falls. Una
prays all night for the recovery of Red Cross, and, in the morning, Red Cross
rises from the spring with his strength restored. Another day of fierce
fighting follows, which again causes injury to both the dragon and to Red
Cross. As the day ends, the wounded Red Cross falls at the foot of a blessed
tree, whose stream of balm restores the knight for yet another day of fighting.
On the third day, the dragon approaches Red Cross with open jaws, intending to
eat the knight and to end the battle. Red Cross, though, pierces the throat of
the dragon, finally killing the beast. Una steps forward to thank God and the
brave knight for a great victory.
With the dragon
killed, the land is freed from its captivity and, rejoicing, the inhabitants
honor Red Cross as their hero. Thus the encounter between the Red Cross Knight
and The Dragon presents the allegorical significance of the Epic poem.

Battle
between Red Cross Knight and Orgoglio.
Answer: Fairy Queen is famous epic of Edmund
Spenser. In the epic, the Epic poet craftily presents The Renaissance and
Reformation elements. Though the use of the elements, the epic poet presents
the different type of allegory. As a result in the epic poem, the epic
poet has presented religious, political and spiritual allegory.
From the history of
the Epic we come to know that Una is a daughter of a king whose country has
been ruined by a dragon. Her life is also under threat. So, his daughter
Una comes to Queen Gluriana to seek help and her father's Kingdom. As result, Gloriana, the Faerie Queene, sent
Redcrosse to kill the dragon and free her parents, but that brave knight now
lies captive to a giant. Because The giant
Orgoglio overpowers Redcrosse, puts him in prison, and takes Duessa as his mistress.
Arthur swears to free Redcrosse and goes with them to the gate of the giant's
castle. There, he blows his great horn, summoning out Orgoglio; Duessa follows,
riding on a seven-headed beast. The giant attacks, and misses with his first
blow; Arthur then hacks off his arm. Meanwhile, the squire tries to hold off
the seven-headed beast, but he is drugged by Duessa and nearly killed. Arthur,
furious, cuts off one of the heads of the beast. But Orgoglio knocks him down
from behind and would have killed him had not Arthur unveiled his shield, which
blinded both beast and giant. Now the knight brings the giant to the ground and
chops off his head. Seeing Arthur victorious, Una runs into the castle and
finds the dungeon where her knight lies. Redcrosse has been weakened almost
unto death, and he must be helped out by Una and Arthur. Once outside, they
take Duessa and strip her, so that Redcrosse can see that she is truly a witch.
Then, they leave her to flee into the woods as they rest in the castle, victorious.
3. Analyze the major
figure of Speech in Faerie Queene?( symbol, personification, imagery, epic
simile, metaphor)
Answer: Faire
Queene is famous epic of Edmund Spenser. In the epic, the Epic poet
craftily presents The Renaissance and Reformation elements. Though the use of
the elements, the epic poet presents the different type of allegory. As a
result in the epic poem, the epic poet has presented religious, political and
spiritual allegory.
From the history of the Epic
we have found the following figure of Speech:
·
Allegory: each leading
character in the twelve projected books was to embody one virtue or quality,
taken together, they would characterize a truly noble person.
·
Spenserianstanza:
Spensor Introduce spenserianstanza in Fairee Quinee. spenserianstanza is a
nine-line stanza consisting of eight iambic.
·
Symbol: Spenser employs name symbolism throughout his work to
convey what a character is intended to represent. The name Fidessa means
“faith”, suggesting that Fidessa is meant to represent faith.
·
Personification allegory:
The Faerie Queene is called a personification allegory because each character
represents something in Spenser's anti-Catholic, pro-Church of England theme.
·
Canto: The Faerie Queene
is divided into cantos, which is a form of writing that divides the text into
smaller portions than you would find in a chapter.
·
Eclogue: An eclogue is
poem written in classical style dealing with pastoral subjects.
·
Pastoral Poetry:
Presents an idealized view of life, rather than a realist's point of view.
·
National Epic: An epic
that tries to capture the essence of the country of its origin.
·
Simile: In The Faerie
Queene, Spenser remains true to this tradition. Epic similes, also called
Homeric simile, are a third textual epic convention. There are many examples of
this convention in The Faerie Queene. For example, comparing Error's defiling
'quality' to the flooding of the Nile and the mudd it leaves, “As when
old father Nilus gins to swell/With timely pride above the Aegyptian vale,/His
fattie waves do fertile slime outwell,/And overflow each plaine and lowly
dale:/But when his later spring gins to avale,/Huge heapes of mudd he leaves,”
Spencer has been
introduced a lot of different types of figure of speech in his famous epic The
Faerie Queene. Here there is the significance of the Epic.
Fight between Red cross knight and Orgoglio
Answer: In the epic poem Faerie Queen
by Edmund Spenser a dreadful and fiery fight takes place in canto 7
between Red cross knight and the giant orgoglio. when the duessa shouts the
knight sees a horrible creature who is coming toward them. The giant is so huge
that he seems to touch the sky. The giant body is full of wind and also full of
sinful thoughts and feelings. When he finds the knight he attacks the knight
very aggressively. The knight has no option but has to fight with that monster
creature. As the knight becomes weak by having the water of the spring.
Therefore, he cannot fight strongly against the powerful prodigy. For that
reason, the giant easily defects the Red cross knight and when He is going to
kill the red cross knight. Then duessa cries out and tells not to kill him on
that occasion. The giant orgoglio accepts duessa’s request and takes her
as his miss-tress and also imprisons the Red cross knight in his dungeon for
further physical and mental tortures.
This
is how the battle ends. But the significance of battle is that the Red cross
night loses his physical and moral strength by drinking poison water from
spring, and having sex with the witches duessa. By commuting these sins the
holiness actually defects with the hand of a giant orgoglio.

him where he's been and telling him how happy she is to finally see him.
Archimago, pretending to be Redcrosse, says he would never leave her and that
he had only left to go on a quest that is now over.
For her Knight she does not have
any ill will or jealousy; she has no words of reproach of indignation, of cold
reserve. On the other hand, meeting her Knight she exclaims with great joy.
Whenever she talks of the Red Cross Knight, she speaks endearingly of him.

Renaissance and Reformation elements. Though the use of the elements, the epic
poet presents the different type of allegory. As a result in the epic
poem, the epic poet has presented religious, political and spiritual allegory.

main centre of the whole world.
In the middle age,
the influence of the church is very dangerous Getting excessive opportunity the
priests are engaged in corruption. Because of the corruption the people are aware of it and they wanted to
reform the church. At this time, Martin luther King wants to reform the church.
From the history

Una comes to Queen Gluriana to seek help and her father's Kingdom. As result, Queen Gluriana employees The Red
Cross night to saved the ruined Kingdom. Next, Una and Red Cross night set to a
journey. They go through a wood. Suddenly, there start a stormy atmosphere and
heavy rain. Actually, the wood is so deep that they do not see anything as the
poem:
" led with delight, they thus
beguile the way,
until the blustering storm is
overblowne".
At
one stage, the storm winds up and they again start their journey. At this time,
they are lost. At last, they go near a cave. But the night is not afraid of it.
He says that man's purity saves him from his danger. Actually, it is the cave
of the monster error that is a horrible creature. When the night pose into the
inside part of the cave he notices a wonderful creature. Actually the wonderful
creature has to face a women and its part is like a Serpent. The horrible
creature has creature has lot of young ones. When the light of the shield falls
upon the eyes of the young ones, they enter into the inside part of the Monster
erro. As the poet describe:
"
Soone as that uncouth light upon them shone,
Into
her mouth they crept, and suddain all were gone."
Next,
The Monster error comes at the cave and it becomes very angry. All this time
Jesus Christ and to pray to him. Then the Knight impose all of his strength and
is able to free one of his hands. The knight presses the thought of the monster
and it begins to vomit. Actually its vomit consists of books and papers. It
also consists of frogs and toads. They are blind and have no eyes. As the poet
presents:
" Her vomit full of books and papers was, With loothly frogs and toads,
which eyes did lacke."
At
last, the night is able to cut off the monster head and finally kills it. In
this way, Spencer has used the allegory and significance in the epic.
Though the description of the Epic poem,
Spencer has been able to preset the Reformation elements, the Renaissance
element and political elements at the same time. Here there is the significance
of the Epic.
