The Faerie Queene is the triumphant culmination of Edmund Spenser's poetic work, dating from the 1590s. This remarkable poem, dedicated to Queen Elizabeth I, was the first epic poem in modern English. It combines dramatic narratives of chivalrous adventure with exquisite and picturesque episodes of pageantry, and at the same time is an allegory about religion in Spenser's England and the struggle between Truth and Error.
