Synopsis
Excerpt from De Imitatione Scriptorum Romanorum Imprimis Lucani
Duo imprimis obstacula in hac terra exsurgunt caque inter se contraria. Quorum altero superato, si modo superari possit, nu merus imitationum augetur, altero recte intellecto minuitur; illo enim efficitur, ut quae sunt imitationes non videantur, hoc, ut quae vi dentur non sint. Quod quamvis quodammodo absurde sonet, tamen res aliter se non habet.
