Longman Annotated English Poets Series editors: J Barnard, P Hammond Spenser The Faerie Queene Edited by A C Hamilton Text edited by Hiroshi Yamashita and Toshiyuki Suzuki Character listing compiled by Shohachi Fukuda The Faerie Queene is one of the great seminal masterpieces of English literature, and has influenced, inspired and challenged generations of writers, readers and scholars since its completion in 1596.

The new text, itself a milestone in academic achievement, has been produced by Hiroshi Yamashi
