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.
