No references found | For example, the evil magician Archimago first appears as an "aged Sire" (I i 29), a self-confessed "silly old man" (I i 30), and a "Hermite" living in a "litle lowly Hermitage," and "wont to say / His holy things each morne and euentyde" (I i 34), while Britomart the virtuous warrior maiden appears as "a knight" (III i 4), to whom the masculine personal pronoun is applied until she takes off her helmet and reveals herself. This contextual relationship of heroines and heroes has been overlooked despite Charles Prouty's earlier argument that Spenser's Archimago helps us to understand better Iago, even though one character inhabits an allegory and the other a drama. In Archimago -- Spenser's "dark double," in the editors' phrase -- Quint locates a parodic and prophetic link to the poem's subsequent narrative as well to the literary and historical antecedents that The Faerie Queene feeds on and disguises. |
