Fovvre Hymnes, Made by Edm. Spenser

By Richard Field and Edmund Spenser

"Fovvre Hymnes, Made by Edm. Spenser" is a collection of four poems by Edmund Spenser, a major figure of the English Renaissance. Published in 1596, these hymns-'An Hymne in Honour of Love, ' 'An Hymne in Honour of Beauty, ' 'An Hymne of Heavenly Love, ' and 'An Hymne of Heavenly Beauty'-reflect Spenser's evolving philosophical and religious views. The collection demonstrates Spenser's mastery of poetic form and allegory, blending classical and Christian ideas to explore themes of love, beauty, and spiritual perfection.

This edition offers readers a chance to engage with Spenser's complex and richly symbolic verse, providing insight into the intellectual and artistic currents of the late 16th century. It is a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Renaissance literature, religious studies, and the history of ideas. Spenser's enduring influence on English poetry is clearly evident in these beautifully crafted hymns.
