In 1936, C.S. Lewis published a comprehensive study of medieval love allegory through the ages, culminating in an analysis of Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene (1596). While Lewis's methodological approach to Spenser's epic relies on an examination of a literary tradition which spans centuries, it neglects certain other forms of allegory with which Spenser was writing, specifically those which are political and historical. The entrenchment of Spenser's epic within its own lineage of literary tradition, however, provides a way for us to recognize and establish patterns not only across ages of literature but also across genres: George MacDonald's 1858 fairy novel Phantastes contains similar plot structure, motifs, conventions and, most importantly to this thesis, cultural capital in the story of King Arthur. This thesis examines English national identity and its literary depictions within these works by placing them within the rich literary traditions from which they are drawn, specifically the Arthur narrative, as well as placing them within their own specific historical contexts. By blending the methodological model provided by Lewis with a more historicist approach-essentially, a model concerned with examining the part in light of its whole and a model concerned with a text's impact on its own particular moment in history-I will offer both an understanding of "Englishness" as it is depicted and established in these texts, as well as a methodological model which seeks to explore allegory that transcends both its formal constrictions and its specific historical context.
