This edition of the Love Poems of Joannes Secundus in Latin and English (facing translation), the first that has appeared in England for more than a century, is meant for both the scholar and the general reader, for the lover of fine literature and the lover of love. It contains the complete series of nineteen "Kisses" and "The Bridal Night," together with a seelection from the "Loves" and "Occasional Poems," most of which have never before been translated into English. A long introductory essay deals not only with Joannes' life and position in literature, but also with the whole subject of Renaissane Latin verse; and a full bibliography gives details of texts, translations, and imitations in English, French, Italian and German.
