The Monks and the Giants is a literary work written by John Hookham Frere in 1821. The book is a prospectus and a specimen of an intended national work that Frere planned to write. The work is a satirical poem that depicts the conflict between the monks and the giants in a medieval world. The story is set in a mythical land where the monks represent the church and the giants represent the secular world. The poem is a commentary on the conflict between the church and the state in the medieval period. The book is written in a humorous and satirical tone, and it is a reflection of Frere's wit and humor. The Monks and the Giants is a significant work of literature that provides insight into the social and political issues of the medieval period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
