Elizabethan poetry and prose. English poetry and prose burst into sudden glory in the late 1570s. A decisive shift of taste toward a fluent artistry self-consciously displaying its own grace and sophistication was announced in the works of Spenser and Sidney.
The Elizabethan age saw the flowering of poetry (the sonnet, the Spenserian stanza, dramatic blank verse), was a golden age of drama (especially for the plays of Shakespeare), and inspired a wide variety of splendid prose (from historical chronicles, versions of the Holy Scriptures, pamphlets, and literary criticism to the first English novels).
English poets such as Alexander Barclay and Barnabe Googe, who wrote in the first decades of the sixteenth century, were, like the Continental poets, influenced by the Latin eclogues.

The early modern theory of allegory is discussed in Sir John Harington's Apology for Poetry.

Many writers of the Elizabethan age translated various books into English. Sir Thomas North translated Plutarch’ Lives of the Noble Grecians and Romans. He was one of the best translators with a good command of English. He also had the ability to weave words into powerful sentences. He did not translate directly from Greek, but from a French translation.
