Produktbeschreibung

This book throws new light on the question of authorship in Neo- Latin literature. It shows that authorship was not something to be automatically assumed, but was chiefly imparted by the paratextual features of works such as letters of dedication, prefaces and author portraits. It examines the strategies and tools used by authors, in order to incorporate themselves into secular, ecclesiastical and intellectual power structures. This is a completely revised English version of the German edition.
