Autorenporträt
Edmund Spenser was an English poet, widely celebrated for his epic poem The Faerie Queene, a remarkable work that glorifies the Tudor dynasty and Queen Elizabeth I. Born around 1552 in London, he is regarded as one of the premier poets of the English Renaissance, contributing significantly to the development of modern English verse. Spenser attended Pembroke College, Cambridge, where he became friends with Gabriel Harvey, and later took on various roles, including serving as a secretary to the Bishop of Rochester. His early work, The Shepheardes Calender, published in 1579, marked his entry into the literary world. Spenser spent much of his life in Ireland, where he worked in the service of the Lord Deputy and gained estates in the Munster Plantation. It was here that he wrote much of The Faerie Queene. He was married twice, first to Machabyas Childe, and later to Elizabeth Boyle. Spenser's life and work reflected the intersection of literary achievement and political involvement, making him a key figure in the English Renaissance. He died in 1599 and was buried in Westminster Abbey.
