Yes, David. It sure does. After all, there's a Chinese translation of the FQ, and that must be a harder fit than Portuguese--all that tonal stuff. The translator, the charming and learned Prof. Wu from the University of Peking, sent me a copy but all I could understand was the ISBN number . . .

Sounds like the Portuguese could use a good translation, doesn't it?

All I’ve been able to find is a modern translation of Amoretti LXXIX, here: http://blogdocastorp.blogspot.fr/2014/04/dandocontinuidade-aos-posts-cuja.html
The Portuguese Wikipedia entry on Spenser says that FQ (A Rainha das Fadas) is all about the fight between Protestants and Catholics.

Hello all,

Happy to make my first post to the list here, to ask if anyone knows of Portuguese translations of Spenser—recent or not, partial or whole, of any work.
