Historical Background

A character in the work The Faerie Queene by Edmund Spenser (published in 1590 & 1596). She is an evil witch who is very ugly, but disguises herself as a beautiful woman. She turned Fradubio and Fraelissa into trees. She is said to represent falsehood and duplicity, being the false love which deceives knights by enchantment to ditch their true loves for her. Fradubio left Fraelissa for her as did Redcrosse abandon Una for Fidessa (Duessa in disguise). She was supposedly based off of the sorceress Circe from Greek mythology and the Whore of Babylon from the Book of Revelation, New Testament. Her name means "dual" or "double".
