The author analyzes representative examples of the courtly love allegory, revealing recurring elements such as garden or meadow settings, indoor settings in temples or castles, and a combination of the two. By examining these elements in twelve distinct episodes within The Faerie Queene, the book demonstrates how Spenser adapted and employed the genre to explore themes of love, virtue, and the human condition.
