A GUIDE TO NEO-LATIN LITERATURE

Latin was for many centuries the common literary language of Europe, and Latin literature of immense range, stylistic power and social and political significance was produced throughout Europe and beyond from the time of Petrarch (c. 1400)wellintothe eighteenth century. This is the first available work devoted specific- ally to the enormous wealth and variety of neo-Latin literature, and offers essential background to the understanding of this material, in twenty-three chapters written by leading scholars – sixteenofwhich are devoted to individual forms. Each contributor relates a wide range of fascinating but now little-known texts to the handful of more familiar Latin works of the period, such as Thomas More’s Utopia, Milton’s Latin poetry and the works of Petrarch and Erasmus. All Latin is translated throughout the volume.

victoria moul is Senior Lecturer in Latin Language and Litera- ture at King’s College London. She is a leader in the ﬁeld of early modern Latin and English literature, with wide-ranging publications including articles on neo-Latin elegy, lyric and didactic poetry and Milton, Jonson, Donne and Cowley, as well as the reception of Horace, Pindar and Virgil. Her previous publications include Jonson, Horace, and the Classical Tradition (Cambridge, 2010)and a translation of George Herbert’s complete Latin poetry with introduction and notes, for a new edition of Herbert edited with John Drury (George Herbert: Complete Poems, 2015). She is working on an anthology of neo-Latin verse, with commentary, and a major book on the interaction between neo-Latin and English poetry in Britain, 1550–1700.

Acknowledgements

This book has been long in the making and has incurred many debts. I am grateful to all the contributors as well as to Michael Sharp at Cambridge University Press for their collective patience and good humour over several years and repeated interruptions of various kinds. Thanks are also due to the anonymous readers for their comments. For assistance and advice at various stages of the project, I would like to thank in particular Stefan Tilg, Nigel Griﬃn, Gesine Manuwald, Fiachra Mac Góráin and Robert Cum- mings (who, very sadly, died before the book appeared). Clare Parsons was a friend beyond compare, especially through two long periods of serious illness and seemingly endless hospital visits. Above all, I thank my hus- band, David Todd, for his unstinting love and support, and for sharing all my pride and pleasure in our little family.
