These essays discuss approaches to early modern literature in
central Europe, focusing on four pivotal areas: connections between
humanism and the new scientific thought; the relationship of late
sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century literature to ancient and
Renaissance European traditions; the social and political context
of early modern writing; and the poets' self-consciousness about
their work. As a whole, the volume argues that early modern writing
in central Europe should not be viewed solely as literature but as
the textual product of specific social, political, educational,
religious, and economic circumstances. The contributors are Judith
P. Aikin, Barbara Becker-Cantarino, Thomas W. Best, Dieter Breuer,
Barton W. Browning, Gerald Gillespie, Anthony Grafton, Gerhart
Hoffmeister, Uwe-K. Ketelsen, Joseph Leighton, Ulrich Mache,
Michael M. Metzger, James A. Parente, Jr., Richard Erich Schade,
George C. Schoolfield, Peter Skrine, and Ferdinand van Ingen.
