Edmund Spenser Knihy

První český překlad lyrické poezie významného anglického lyrika a epika, básnického předchůdce W. Shakespeara, přináší výbor ze Sonetů a Svatební píseň. Autor v nich opěvá reálnou lásku k Elizabeth Boylové a sňatek s ní. Překlad se snaží o postižení Spenserova uměleckého mistrovství, jež prolínajíc subjektivní zážitek starověkou mytologií a středověkou alegorizací, vyjadřuje se nesmírně sdělnou hudebností.
