| Publisher Description: BARTHOLOMEW GRIFFIN: FIDESSA: ELIZABETHAN SONNET CYCLE ---- Edited by Mark Tuley ---- Introduced by Martha Foote CrowBartholomew Griffin's 'Fidessa: More Chaste Than Kind' (1596) is one of the lesser-known Elizabethan sonnet sequences, reprinted here in an attractive new edition. The book includes a note on Bartholomew Griffin by Martha Foote Crow, illustrations, and suggestions for further reading. Each poem has a page to itself. It's a useful edition for students. The author of Fidessa has gained undeserved notice from the fact that the piratical printer W. Jaggard included a transcript of one of his sonnets in a volume that he put forth in 1599, under the name of William Shakespeare. However, Griffin's poetry has its own style. ---- Illustrated. Bibliography, introduction and note. 100 pages. www.crmoon.com |
