This set publishes together two influential critical works of the 18th-century. Richard Hurd's "Letters on Chivalry and Romance" and the second (enlarged) edition of Thomas Warton's "Observations on the Fairy Queen" appeared within a few months of each other in 1762. These two books, which represented a new "historical" criticism, established Spenser's "Faerie Queene" as a "romantic" poem in the tradition of medieval romance and fictions of chivalry. With the recent surge of interest in the 18th-century origins of the literary canon, Hurd and Warton have attracted new critical attention as major figures of the Spenser revival of the time. Fairer's introduction draws on newly-discovered material to place the works in their contemporary context.
