The Influence Of Spenser's Irish Residence On The Faerie Queene., Ellen Mcdowell Davis

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The departure of Spenser for Ireland in 1580 as secretary to Lord Grey of Wilton, newly appointed Lord Deputy of Ireland, marks a significant point in the poet's career. Save for occasional trips to England, the remaining years of his life Spenser spent in this "salvage land", among a hostile and turbulent people, far from the brilliance of English court life and "Elisa's blessed fields." The appointment to service in Ireland seems to have been a disappointment to the poet who had shortly before thought himself assured of an official career in England under the patronage of Leicester. In October …

Is not the color or race prejudice a traditional still adhered to? Is this Congregation in its infancy? If so, when was it founded and by whom? These, and many other questions of the same type are asked by tourists when they are informed that the building on Orleans Street, formerly the Orleans b ballroom, is the Convent of the Holy Family and the motherhouse of …
