Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Along with his childhood friend Sir Philip Sidney, Fulke Greville (1554–1628) was an important member of the court of Queen Elizabeth I. Although his poems, long out of print, are today less well known than those of Sidney, Spenser, or Shakespeare, Greville left an indelible mark on the world of Renaissance poetry, both in his love poems, which ably work within the English Petrarchan tradition, and in his religious meditations, which, along with the work of Donne and Herbert, stand as a highpoint of early Protestant poetics. Back in print for a new generation of scholars and readers, Thom Gunn’s selection of Greville’s short poems includes the whole of Greville’s lyric sequence, Caelica, along with choruses from some of Greville’s verse dramas. Gunn’s introduction places Greville’s thought in historical context and in relation to the existential anxieties that came to preoccupy writers in the twentieth century. It is as revealing about Gunn himself, and the reading of earlier English verse in the 1960s, as it is about Greville’s own poetic achievement. This reissue of Selected Poems of Fulke Greville is an event of the first order both for students of early British literature and for readers of Thom Gunn and English poetry generally.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fulke Greville is one of the most enigmatic ofthe Elizabethans. He served three monarchs-Elizabeth, James and Charles-achieving high office in the state and amassing considerable wealth. The contrast between the worldliness of his career and the inwardness of his poetry has led to theories of 'the dualism of Fulke Greville', but the explanation lies rather in the development of his thought. Taking up verse as one of the accomplishments of the courtier, Greville ventured on the sonnet sequence Ca!lica (written concurrently with Sir Philip Sidney's Astrophil and Stella), but came out on the other side. He turned next to the Senecan play, and in Mustapha and Alaham dramatized various subversive political viewpoints, and made the Senecan chorus an instrument of reflection and debate. An anonymous and unauthorized text of Mustapha was published in 1609.

He turned next to the Senecan play, and in Mustapha and Alaham dramatized various subversive political viewpoints, and made the Senecan chorus an instrument of reflection and debate. An anonymous and unauthorized text of Mustapha was published in 1609. From the choruses of the plays developed the first of the verse treatises, A Treatise ofMonarchy, an exercise in Realpolitik. The issues encountered but not resolved in Monarchy led to a further set of treatises, showing Greville's deepening moral vision and his exploration of the treatise as an art fonn. His confidence that the state may be refonned, if the right policies are adopted (Monarchy), yields finally to a loss of faith in human institutions altogether.
