About this book

Ausgezeichnet mit dem Walter-Witzenmann-Preis der Heidelberger Akademie der Wissenschaften

Between 1514 and 1663 the genre known as Heroides, coined by Ovid, was maintained almost entirely by modern Latin poets. This book considers the period, which has up to now remained almost unheeded in the history of the genre. It looks at the collections of epistles by relevant authors (Eobanus Hessus, Andreas Alenus, Jacob Bidermann, Baudouin Cabiliau, Jean Vincart, Jacob Balde) in their context within the history of literature, considers their intertextual relationships and functional directions and renders them accessible with individual analyses of example poems.
