This book is an illuminating collection of the life's work of the 16th century English poet George Gascoigne. It offers three idiomatic specimens of his powers as a poetical critic, satirist, and elegist, representative of Gascoigne as one of the principal poets in the first half of Elizabeth's reign and an important early English critic in poetry. The book places in conversation two of Gascoigne's satires and an elegy with his own critical commentary on poetry and satire. For scholars, students and general readers alike, the insights presented in this book provide a significant survey of the burgeoning literary culture of Elizabethan England.
