{"title":"To “maister the circumstance”: Mulcaster’s Positions and Spenser’s Faerie Queene","authors":"Åke Bergvall","doi":"10.1086/706175","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1086/706175","url":null,"abstract":"This essay argues that the prominent Elizabethan pedagogue Richard Mulcaster exerted a considerable influence on the narrative strategies of his pupil Edmund Spenser, especially as seen in Book I of The Faerie Queene. Where recent scholars such as Jeff Dolven and Andrew Wallace have maintained that Spenser was critical of many of the humanist practices they deem prevalent in the Elizabethan classroom, this study shows that such critique of humanism was already a basic part of the reformed curriculum at Merchant Taylors’ School, where Spenser received his early training under Mulcaster. The essay first provides a reading of Mulcaster’s main pedagogical text, Positions (1581), and then applies its key concepts to a reading of Book I of Spenser’s poem with a double emphasis on the hero of the poem, Redcrosse, and on the reader’s interaction with the text. The most important of these concepts is the seemingly innocuous term “circumstance.” Aside from being a key concept within forensic oratory, to “maister the circumstance” is for Mulcaster a shorthand for a cautious approach to the classical text studied in his classroom. The same strategy, this essay argues, is implemented in the poem. The reader must pay attention to the circumstances, with their rhetorical, pedagogical, and theological connotations, triggered in large part by the apparent inability of Redcrosse, the putative hero of the book, to do so. Additionally, as a subcategory of the rhetorical connotations, there is also the need to assess the use of names in the poem.","PeriodicalId":39606,"journal":{"name":"Spenser Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79070155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Open Secrets: The Verbal-Visual Satire of the Anjou Match in Spenser’s Shepheardes Calender","authors":"Kenneth Borris","doi":"10.1086/706176","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1086/706176","url":null,"abstract":"In 1579 Queen Elizabeth appeared about to marry the Roman Catholic duc d’Anjou, the French king’s brother and heir apparent. Recalling the St. Bartholomew’s Massacre of 1572 in Paris, many English Protestants feared this match, and Spenser’s Shepheardes Calender (1579) satirizes it to stoke resistance. Although the twelve eclogues are illustrated, previous accounts of this satire address only its verbal aspects and focus on “Februarye,” “Aprill,” and “November.” But the picture for “Maye” presents the spurious triumph of a mock-royal couple juxtaposed with a fable of disastrous carelessness while heraldically relating them to the English monarchy. This eclogue climaxes the anti-Anjou satire both visually and verbally and pointedly interacts with the picture and poem for “Aprill” wherein Elizabeth triumphs as England’s virgin queen. As these two eclogues constitute a mutually definitive pair, so consideration of each should be informed by its counterpart. To fulfill the felt responsibilities of his poetic vocation amid acute political and religious challenges, yet elude reprisals, Spenser artfully exploited illustrated poetry’s greater potential for indirect expression, as in emblematics. Yet his intervention was still hazardous as well as potentially rewarding.","PeriodicalId":39606,"journal":{"name":"Spenser Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88836298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
