Syntagmatia
This collective volume has been dedicated to two distinguished scholars of Neo-Latin Studies. Both the rich variety of subjects dealt with and the international diversity of the contributors reflect the wide interests of the celebrated Neo-Latinists and the contemporary status of the discipline itself. In addition to studies of Petrarch, Lorenzo Valla, Erasmus, Vives, T omas More, Eobanus Hessus, Lipsius, Tycho Brahe, Jean de la Fontaine, and Jacob Cats, it also includes contributions on Renaissance commentaries and editions of classical authors such as Homer, Seneca, and Horace; on Neo-Latin novels, epistolography, and Renaissance rhetoric; on Latin translations from the vernacular and invectives against Napoleon; on the teaching of Latin in the nineteenth century; and on the present-day didactics of Neo-Latin.

Neo-Latin Commentaries and the Management of Knowledge in the Late Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period (1400-1700)
This book sheds light on the various ways in which classical authors and the Bible were commented on by neo-Latin writers between 1400 and 1700.
The Early Modern Cultures of Neo-Latin Drama
'From ca. 1300 a new genre developed in European literature, Neo-Latin drama. Building on medieval drama, vernacular theatre and classical drama, it spread around Europe. It was often used as a means to educate young boys in Latin, in acting and in moral issues. Comedies, tragedies and mixed forms were written. The Societas Jesu employed Latin drama in their education and public relations on a large scale. They had borrowed the concept of this drama from the humanist and Protestant gymnasia, and perfected it to a multi media show. However, the genre does not receive the attention that it deserves. In this volume, a historical overview of this genre is given, as well as analyses of separate plays.'--From publisher's website.
Nationalism and Royal Women in Early Modern England
This book encounters the figure of the royal woman in the early modern period and explores how she enables and complicates the key moment at which England was emerging as an ideology, a nation, and an empire. Queens and queens consort, historical and fictional, played crucial roles in Renaissance England’s shifting ideologies of nationalist identity. This collection considers how a series of royal women particularly embodied and complicated these many self-constructions of England and complex renditions of “the other.” The period’s influential female monarchs certainly made the queen’s political body more visibly politicized, repatriated, and racialized; these same historical royals were represented as icons of nationalism in many forms and functions. In fictional incarnations, royal women created by the English imagination symbolized and structured those same nation-building narratives. This volume studies royal women’s writings alongside such depictions of royal women, especially as such works collectively enable emergent English ideologies of nationalism and racialization.
