Alternative worlds in Spenser's The faerie queeneVan Zyl, Liezel 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA)-- Stellenbosch University, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Although The Faerie Queene was written in 1589 as a commentary on and criticism of issues
which would concern many sixteenth-century Protestant subjects of Queen Elizabeth of
England, Spenser creates in his text worlds which even a twentieth-century reader can find
significant. Allegorical representations, mythical, historical and poetical figures and pastoral
retreats, for example, not only reflect the harsh realities which sixteenth-century English
society experienced, but also offer the possibility of escape to worlds of divine and charitable
interaction. Spenser, drawing on Philip Sidney's An Apology for Poetry, constructs an ideal
world where there is no strife, only peaceful interaction and stability, as opposed to the
problems and fears of the "real" world of sixteenth-century England. The story of Faery Land
is, therefore, about a magical world of wish fulfilment, but at the same time it also draws on
the concrete reality of sixteenth-century England, which has relevance for a twentieth-century
world still concerned with many of the same issues of crime, justice, religion, government,
relationships and history. Discussion in this thesis focuses on the different "real" and ideal
worlds and the devices used to represent these worlds in the narrative of The Faerie Queene.
Chapter 1 deals with allegorical representation and distinguishes between two levels of
representation: a "literal" or primary level of signification which reflects the everyday
experiences of the sixteenth-century reader, and the allegorical level whereby these
experiences and desires are personified. The allegory, in tum, communicates and reveals
different doctrines or themes: this chapter shows how Redcrosse represents the struggle of the
religious man who finally earns salvation by perseverance and dependence on the grace of
God. In this allegorical world, Spenser shows the religious conflicts, doubts and victories of
the sixteenth-century Protestant man. Chapter 2 explores a series of allegorical parallels in plot, theme and structure in Book 2 of
The Faerie Queene which create the "real" and ideal worlds through which Guyon now runs
his race. Here, the discussion focuses on the clues provided by the allegory which lead the
reader to a redefinition of the categories of good and evil. The primary purpose of the allegory
is, therefore, didactic and the sixteenth-century reader is taught how to interpret the signs and
symbols of Spenser's allegorical, historical and mythical worlds. This chapter concludes with
an examination of Spenser's mythical devices and an exploration of the historical significance
of his fictional characters and plots - all of which help the reader to grasp the significance of
Spenser's world of knights and fairies.
Chapter 3 focuses on a discussion of Books 3 and 4, in which issues of love and friendship
come to shape Spenser's ideal world. The analyses consider how sixteenth-century
perceptions of marriage, love and power may have influenced his conceptionalization of such
an ideal world. The chapter concludes with an exploration of sixteenth-century concerns with
time and discord, and demonstrates how Spenser fmally resolves these issues in his vision of
the Garden of Adonis.
Chapter 4 deals with Book 5, where Artegall represents the just knight. Here the thesis
examines Spenser's political aspirations, and shows how historical events are reflected in the
actions of characters and how they may influence Spenser's vision of the ideal society with its
just ruler. This discussion also focuses, among other things, on those factors which may have
contributed to Spenser's disillusionment with sixteenth-century society. Chapter 5 concludes with Spenser's pastoral ideal of Book 6, which brings the promise of
peace and prosperity, as opposed to a life of waste and thwarted ambition at Court. On Mount
Acidale, Spenser's alternative worlds coincide, as Calidore, representing the fallen and "real"
world of Faery Land, is allowed a glimpse of the poetic and divine worlds which the poet,
Colin Clout, already shares with three Graces and his mistress. Chapter 5 examines the poet's
autobiographical persona in the figure of Colin Clout and the relevance of his appearance on
Mount Acidale in particular, and in the poem in general. It is the intention of this thesis to
follow the route which Spenser has marked out, to read and interpret the signs and to finally
share in this world of dream and thought, experience and vision. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ten spyte van die feit dat Spenser se Faerie Queene reeds in 1589 geskryfis as 'n
kommentaar of kritiek op kwessies wat vir menige sestiende-eeuse Protestantse onderdaan
van koningin Elizabeth van Engeland van belang sou wees, is daar in Spenser se teks wêrelde
geskep wat selfs vir 'n twintigste eeuse leser waarde sou hê. Allegoriese voorstellings,
mitologiese-, historiese-, en poëtiese figure, asook herderstoevlugte byvoorbeeld reflekteer
nie net die harde realiteite waaraan 'n sestiende-eeuse Engelse gemeenskap blootgestel is nie,
maar bied ook die moontlikheid van ontsnapping na wêrelde van goddelike en mensliewende
interaksie. Spenser, wat gebruik maak van Sidney se An Apology for Poetry, konstrueer 'n
ideale wêreld waar daar nie konflik of oorlog is nie, slegs vreedsame interaksie en stabiliteit;
teenoor die probleme en vrese of "realiteite" wat 'n sestiende-eeuse Engeland gekenmerk het.
Die Faerie Queene gaan dus oor 'n verbeeldingryke wêreld van wensvervulling, maar
terselfdertyd verwys dit ook na die konkrete realiteit van 'n sestiende-eeuse Engeland wat
relevansie het vir 'n twintigste-eeuse gemeenskap nog steeds gemoeid met baie van dieselfde
kwessies rakende misdaad, geregtigheid, godsdiens, regering, verhoudings en geskiedenis.
Bespreking in hierdie tesis fokus op die verskillende "werklike" en ideale wêrelde asook die
tegnieke waarvan daar gebruik gemaak is om hierdie wêrelde in Spenser se gedig voor te stel.
Hoofstuk 1 bespreek die allegoriese voorstelling en onderskei tussen twee vlakke van
representasie: 'n "letterlike," of primêre vlak van aanduiding wat die alledaagse ervaringe van
die sestiende-eeuse leser voorstel en die allegoriese vlak waar hierdie ervaringe en begeertes
gepersonifieer word. Die allegorie, op sy beurt, kommunikeer en onthul verskillende
leerstellings ofboodskappe: hierdie hoofstuk wys hoe Rederosse die stryd van die gelowige man verteenwoordig wat uiteindelik gered word as gevolg van volharding en erkenning van
sy afhanklikheid van God. Hierdie wêreld beeld die konflik, onsekerheid en oorwinning van
die sestiende-eeuse Protestant uit.
Hoofstuk 2 ondersoek 'n reeks allegoriese paralleie in plot, tema en struktuur in Boek 2 van
The Faerie Queene wat die "werklike" en ideale wêrelde skep waardeur Guyon nou sy
wedren hardloop. Hier fokus die bespreking op die leidrade wat deur die allegorie voorsien
word en waardeur die leser gelei word tot 'n herdefinieering van die kategorieë van goed en
sleg. Die primêre doel van die allegorie is dus didakties en die sestiende-eeuse leser word
geleer hoe om die tekens en simbole van Spenser se allegoriese, historiese en mitologiese
wêrelde te interpreteer. Hierdie hoofstuk sluit af met 'n ondersoek na Spenser se mitologiese
tegnieke en die geskiedkundige relevansie van sy fiktiewe karakters en plot - waarvan
laasgenoemde die leser help om Spenser se wêreld met sy ridders en feë te kan interpreteer.
Hoofstuk 3 fokus op 'n bespreking van Spenser se Boeke 3 en 4 waar liefde en vriendskap
bydra tot die skep van Spenser se ideale wêreld. Die hoofstuk ondersoek hoe sestiende-eeuse
persepsies van die huwelik, liefde en mag Spenser se konsep van so 'n ideale wêreld kon
beïnvloed. Die hoofstuk sluit af met 'n ondersoek na sestiende-eeuse bemoeienis met tyd en
wanorde en demonstreer hoe Spenser uiteindelik 'n oplossing vind in sy visie van die Tuin
van Adonis.
Hoofstuk 4 bespreek Boek 4 waar Artegall die ridder van reg en geregtigheid is. Hier
ondersoek die tesis Spenser se politiese aspirasies en wys hoe geskiedkundige gebeure
eerstens in die optrede van karakters gereflekteer word en tweedens ook Spenser se visie van
die ideale gemeenskap met sy regverdige leier kon beïnvloed. Die bespreking fokus ook onder andere op daardie faktore wat kon bydra tot Spenser se ontnugtering met 'n sestiendeeeuse
gemeenskap.
Hoofstuk 5 sluit af met Spenser se herders-ideaal in Boek 6 wat die belofte bring van vrede en
voorspoed, teenoor 'n lewe van verspeelde en verlore geleenthede of misplaaste ambisie in
Elizabeth se hof. Dit is op Mount Acidale dat Spenser se verskillende wêrelde saamkom
wanneer Calidore, wat die sondige en "werklike" wêreld verteenwoordig, 'n vlugtige blik in
die poëtiese en goddelike wêrelde gegun word. 'n Wêreld waarin die digter, Colin Clout en
die drie "Graces" saam met sy geliefde, reeds deel. Hoofstuk 5 ondersoek die digter se
outobiografiese persoon in die figuur Colin Clout en die relevansie van sy spesifieke
verskyning op Mount Acidale en sy algemene verskyning in die gedig. Dit is die doel van
hierdie tesis om die roete te volg wat Spenser uitgelê het, om die tekens te lees en te
interpreteer en om ten slotte te deel in hierdie wêreld van droom en gedagtes, ervaring en
vISIe.

Aspects of temperance in Spencer and MiltonSexton, James Penman January 1971 (has links)
The purpose of the thesis is first to anatomize the concept of "temperance," studying it in its Classical and Christian contexts. After having done so I examine the use of the concept in Spenser's Faerie Queene, Book II and in a series of works by Milton.
We see that "temperance" is a many-sided term, variously defined as "quietness," "modesty," "doing one's own work," and "self-knowledge." Since its linguistic prototype was the Greek sophrosyne, the notion of "order" and "harmony" also carries over to the word "temperance." It becomes clear that temperance has cosmological significance--it is a manifestation of the orderly universe with regard to personal morality. As such it is an instrument of God's grace against the forces of Satanic disorder and intemperance.
Temperance served to keep the Christian hero alive to grace and able to respond to it when the right moment arrived, only after much trial. Temperance, then, helps man to weather the state of trial which comes before the state of glory and makes him worthy of felicity.
In Chapter One, the notion of temperance is examined with reference to various Classical and Christian works, thus uncovering a wide range of meanings for the term. Chapter Two is devoted to a chronological journey through Spenser's Book of Temperance, and showing how Spenser was alive to the tradition behind him.
The third chapter examines Comus, Paradise Lost, Paradise Regained and Samson Agonistes and in so doing underscores Milton's understanding of and concern with temperance. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate
