Detailed explanation-1: -A View of the Present State of Irelande is a 1596 pamphlet by English writer, poet and soldier Edmund Spenser.
Detailed explanation-2: -In 1596, Spenser wrote a prose pamphlet titled A View of the Present State of Ireland.
Detailed explanation-3: -Spenser’s A View of the Present State of Ireland (written 1595–96, published 1633), a later tract, argues lucidly for a typically 16th-century theory of rule: firm measures, ruthlessly applied, with gentleness only for completely submissive subject populations.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Faerie Queene (1590) is an epic poem by Edmund Spenser (c. 1552–1599), which follows the adventures of a number of medieval knights. The poem, written in a deliberately archaic style, draws on history and myth, particularly the legends of Arthur.
Detailed explanation-5: -Back in Ireland, Spenser pressed on with his writing, in spite of the burdens of his estate. In early 1595 he published Amoretti and Epithalamion, a sonnet sequence and a marriage ode celebrating his marriage to Elizabeth Boyle after what appears to have been an impassioned courtship in 1594.
