Meer over het boek

Exploring the historical and political context of Edmund Spenser's work, FASTNESS reinterprets the Mutability Cantos through a modern poetic lens. Trevor Joyce's translation strips away Spenser's archaic dialect, presenting the narrative in contemporary vernacular while highlighting the colonial implications of Spenser's writing. The poem serves as a postcolonial critique, reflecting on the impact of English colonialism in Ireland and reexamining Spenser's allegories against the backdrop of British imperial history. Joyce's work revitalizes Spenser's language, making it relevant for today's readers.
