Edmund Spenser
Edmund Spenser (c. 1552 13 January 1599) was an English poet best known for The Faerie Queene, an epic song and fantastical allegory celebrating the Tudor dynasty andElizabeth I. He is recognised as one of the premier craftsmen of Modern English verse in its infancy, and one of the greatest poets in the English language
Edmund Spenser was born in East Smithfield, capital of the United Kingdom around the year 1552 though on that point is some ambiguity as to the exact date of his birth. As a young boy, he was educated in London at the Merchant Taylors School and matriculated as a sizar at Pembroke College, Cambridge.[1][2] While at Cambridge he became a friend of Gabriel Harvey, and afterward consulted him, despite their differing views on poetry.
In July 1580, Spenser went to Ireland in the service of the impertinently appointed Lord Deputy,Arthur Grey, 14th Baron Grey de Wilton. thus he served with the English forces during theSecond Desmond Rebellion. After the defeat of the native Irish he was awarded lands inCounty Cork that had been confiscated in the Munster Plantation during the Elizabethan seduction of Ireland. Among his acquaintances in the area was Walter Raleigh, a fellow colonist.
Through his poetry, Spenser hoped to specify a place at court, which he visited in Raleighs familiarity to deliver his most famous work,The Faerie Queene. However, he boldly antagonised the queens principal secretary, Lord Burghley, and all he received in recognition of his work was a pension in 1591.
