ellauri096.html on line 778: In Edmund Spenser´s The Faerie Queene, book II, Acrasia, the embodiment of intemperance dwelling in the "Bower of Bliss", had the Circe-like capacity of transforming her lovers into monstrous animal shapes. Pitäs ja pitäs, mutta kun tekee mieli.
ellauri140.html on line 78: Archipelago M-, an evil sorcerer who is sent to stop the knights in the service of the Faerie Queene. Of the knights, Archimago hates Redcrosse most of all, hence he is symbolically the nemesis of England.
ellauri140.html on line 82: Arttu M+ perkele, nuorin Puukon veljexistä, of the Round Table, but playing a different role here. He is madly in love with the Faerie Queene and spends his time in pursuit of her when not helping the other knights out of their sundry predicaments. Prince Arthur is the Knight of Magnificence, the perfection of all virtues. Kyllä kai. Puukon veljexet sitoi dynamiittipötkyn koiran selkään. Koira juoxi taloon sisälle. Arttu perässä. Eipä tarvinnut enää suursiivota.
ellauri140.html on line 93: Stevedore M+, the Knight of Courtesy, hero of Book VI. He is on a quest appearance from the Faerie Queene to slay the Blatant Beast.
ellauri140.html on line 126: Scubamour M+, the lover of Amoret. His name means "Diving gear of love". This character is based on Sir James Scudamore, a jousting champion and courtier to Queen Elizabeth I. Scudamour loses his love of Amoret to the benefit of the sorcerer Busirane. Though the 1590 edition of The Faerie Queene has Scudamour united with Amoret through Britomart´s assistance, the continuation in Book IV has them separated, never to be reunited.
ellauri140.html on line 138: Throughout The Faerie Queene, Spenser creates "a network of allusions to events, issues, and particular persons in England and Ireland" including Mary, Queen of Scots, the Spanish Armada, the English Reformation, and even the Queen herself. It is also known that James VI of Scotland read the poem, and was very insulted by Duessa – a very negative depiction of his mother, Mary, Queen of Scots. She was a crocodile in the book. The Faerie Queene was then banned in Scotland. This led to a significant decrease in Elizabeth's support for the poem. Within the text, both the Faerie Queene and Belphoebe serve as two of the many personifications of Queen Elizabeth, some of which are "far from complimentary". Through their ancestor, Owen Tudor, the Tudors had Welsh blood, through which they claimed to be descendants of Arthur and rightful rulers of Britain.
ellauri140.html on line 140: Though it praises her in some ways, The Faerie Queene questions Elizabeth's ability to rule so effectively because of her gender, and also inscribes the "shortcomings" of her rule. There is a character named Britomart who represents married chastity. This character is told that her destiny is to be an "immortal womb" – to have children. Here, Spenser is referring to Elizabeth's unmarried state and is touching on anxieties of the 1590s about what would happen after her death since the kingdom had no heir. No vittu ei ole maailma mixkään muuttunut, just samanlaista tuubaa kirjoitti Suomenmaa just Sanna Marinista.
ellauri140.html on line 144: In "The Mathematics of Magic", the second of Fletcher Pratt and L. Sprague de Camp's Harold Shea stories, the modern American adventurers Harold Shea and Reed Chalmers visit the world of The Faerie Queene, where they discover that the greater difficulties faced by Spenser's knights in the later portions of the poem are explained by the evil enchanters of the piece having organized a guild to more effectively oppose them. Juppajju, dominoteoria. Hullut vietnam-veteraanit sekoaa kun pitäs syödä lo meiniä. Kiinattaret tuoxuu tutusti halvalta hajuvedeltä ja herneenpalolta.
ellauri140.html on line 146: According to Richard Simon Keller, George Lucas's Star Wars film also contains elements of a loose adaptation, as well as being influenced by other works, with parallels including the story of the Red Cross Knight championing Una against the evil Archipelago in the original compared with Lucas's Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Darth Vader. Keller sees extensive parallels between the film and book one of Spenser's work, stating "Almost everything of importance that we see in the Star Wars movie has its origin in The Faerie Queene, from small details of weaponry and dress to large issues of chivalry and spirituality".

ellauri140.html on line 166: Pride (F) – Lucifera, whose name derives from Lucifer, is ruler of the six counselors in he Faerie Queene. She represents pride because she takes pride in her name, which can be seen as paying homage to Satan. Ylpeä pelaa vastapuolen tiimissä.
ellauri140.html on line 197: In July 1580, Spenser went to Ireland in service of the newly appointed Lord Deputy, Arthur Grey, 14th Baron Grey de Wilton. Spenser served under Lord Grey with Walter Raleigh at the Siege of Smerwick massacre. When Lord Grey was recalled to England, Spenser stayed on in Ireland, having acquired other official posts and lands in the Munster Plantation. Raleigh acquired other nearby Munster estates confiscated in the Second Desmond Rebellion. Sometime between 1587 and 1589, Spenser acquired his main estate at Kilcolman, near Doneraile in North Cork. He later bought a second holding to the south, at Rennie, on a rock overlooking the river Blackwater in North Cork. Its ruins are still visible today. A short distance away grew a tree, locally known as "Spenser's Oak" until it was destroyed in a lightning strike in the 1960s. Local legend claims that he penned some of The Faerie Queene under this tree.
ellauri140.html on line 199: In 1590, Spenser brought out the first three books of his most famous work, The Faerie Queene, having travelled to London to publish and promote the work, with the likely assistance of Raleigh. He was successful enough to obtain a life pension of £50 a year from the Queen. He probably hoped to secure a place at court through his poetry, but his next significant publication boldly antagonised the queen's principal secretary, Lord Burghley (William Cecil), through its inclusion of the satirical Mother Hubberd's Tale. He returned to Ireland. Oops.

ellauri163.html on line 697: With an 11-year-old hero, Philip Pullman´s new book is a delightful nod to Edmund Spenser´s 'The Faerie Queene'. If Philip Pullman’s Dark Materials trilogy was an obvious nod to John Milton’s Paradise Lost, his new Book Of Dust trilogy takes inspiration from Edmund Spenser’s The Faerie Queene. Though thematically different, both fall within the same literary genre—they are epic poems, long narrative pieces recounting heroic deeds, and if the term could loosely be used to describe works of prose, then La Belle Sauvage, the first in the Book Of Dust trilogy, is one such novel. Spenser’s late-16th century poem, though incomplete, follows the adventures of medieval knights. Our knight is 11-year-old Malcolm Polstead, curious, intelligent, good-natured and clueless, when we first meet him, of the trials that await him. La Belle Sauvage, then, is a companion, or "equel" (a new story that stands alongside his previous trilogy), to His Dark Materials trilogy. Better strike while the iron is hot, as J.K. Rowling did.
ellauri372.html on line 496: Butler löysi luultavasti nimen "Hudibras" Spenserin Faerie Queenen toisesta kirjasta (1590), jossa "Huddibras" (niin Spenser kirjoittaa kauttaaltaan) on ritari, joka oli enemmän kuuluisa vahvuudestaan kuin teoistaan ja joka oli enemmän tyhmä kuin viisas. Spenser itse poimi nimen joko Holinshedin Chroniclesista tai Holinshedin lähteestä, Geoffrey of Monmouthin historiallisesta fantasiasta De gestis Britonum tai History of the Kings of Britain (noin 1136; painettu vuonna 1508). Toisin kuin Butler ja Spenser, Geoffrey tai Holinshed eivät anna Hudibraalle mitään erityisiä ominaisuuksia tai toimintoja.
xxx/ellauri139.html on line 815: Prof. Stefan Hawlin, Department of English, Chandos Building, University of Buckingham, selittää ton Merlin kohdan Keazin runossa. Perhaps a reference to Spenser's Faerie Queene, Book III, Canto III.7-11? Demoni ois se Lady in the Lake, ja Merlinin velka ois pussillinen siimahäntiä? Tai size on Maloryn Morte d'Arthurista, josta Keazilla oli oma kopio. Oisko se demoni ehkä Merlinin oma iskä, joka oli incubus? Sitä Stefu ehdottaa: Merlin oli paholaisen poika, jonka paholainen siitti kieron kautta, mutta äiti ja Blaise risti Merlinin heti kehdossa, ja vihtahousun juoni oli pilalla. No missä mielessä sit Merlin maxo kehnon velan takaisin? No auttamalla Utherin Igrainen pukille, josta siittyi anti-anti-kristus Artturi. Aika komplisoitua. Spenserin Keijukuningatar on vähän liian pitkä tähän, 36K jaetta ja 4000 värssyä.
