(2015) Deixis in the early modern English lyric, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
Three types ofdeixis are especially important in Spenser's poem: his use of"heere"in line 71, his repeated references to "this day," and his deployment of the deictic motion verb "come." Studying them demonstrates the many ways his deictics can be seen as strategic and provides new perspectives on the poem's relationship to the English presence in Ireland while also supplementing, complicating, and evaluating that political reading.
