Islam and Early Modern English Literature: The Politics of Romance from Spenser to Milton - Paperback

by Benedict S. Robinson (Author)

This book traces the process through which authors like Spenser, Shakespeare, and Milton adapted, rewrote, or resisted romance, mapping a world in which new cross-cultural contacts and religious conflicts demanded a rethinking of some of the most fundamental terms of early modern identity.
