The book address the two principal literary works in which the transformation becomes apparent, Thomas More's\u003cem\u003e Utopia\u003c\/em\u003e and Edmund Spenser's \u003cem\u003eFaerie Queene\u003c\/em\u003e, and sketches the history of equity to its roots in the Greek concept of \u003cem\u003eepieikeia\u003c\/em\u003e, uncovering along the way both previously unexplained distinctions, and a long-obscured esoteric meaning. These rediscoveries, when brought to bear upon the \u003cem\u003eUtopia \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003eFaerie Queene\u003c\/em\u003e, illuminate critical though relatively neglected textual passages that have long puzzled scholars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Majeske\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415977053\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415977050\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/18\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.28h x 6.36w x 0.74d","brand":"Andrew Majeske","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086675915007,"sku":"9780415977050","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2a6b9ff6-e680-4c18-8456-2a8a8d149adb.jpg?v=1769095963","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/equity-in-english-renaissance-literature-andrew-majeske-9780415977050","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
