- Description
- Close reading of lines 33-41 (and E. K.'s commentary) of the February eclogue of Spenser's "Shepheardes Calender" exemplifies the "truancy of literary resonance" and discloses resonant intertextual play among the comic variety of HF, the monovocality of the anonymous lyric "La Compleynt," E. K.'s commentary, the eclogues themselves, and Spenser’' literary ambitions.
