England s Helicon is about one of the most important features of early modern
gardens: the fountain. It is also a detailed study of works by Philip Sidney, Edmund
Spenser, and Ben
Jonson,
and of an influential Italian romance, the Hypnerotom-
achia Poliphili. Fountains were strong points in the iconography and structure of
gardens, symbolically loaded and interpretatively dense, soliciting the most active
engagement possible from those who encountered them. These qualities are
registered and explored in their literary counterparts.
England s Helicon is not a simple motif study of fountains in English Renaissance
literature: it is, rather, an investigation of how each might work; of how literary
fountains both inform and are informed by real fountains in early modern litera¬
ture and culture. While its main focus remains the literature of the late sixteenth
century, England s Helicon recognises that intertextuality and influence can be
material as well as literary. It demonstrates that the missing piece needed to make
sense of a passage in a play, a poem, or a prose romance could be a fountain, a con¬
duit, a well, or a reflecting pool, in general or even in a specific, known garden; it
also considers portraits, textiles, jewellery, and other artefacts depicting fountains.
Early modern English gardens and fountains are almost all lost, but to approach
them through literary texts and objects is often to recover them in new ways. This
is the double project that England s Helicon undertakes; in so doing, it offers a new
model for the exploration of the interconnectedness of texts, images, objects and
landscapes in early modern literature and culture.
