Abstract

Neo-Latin poetry of the 16th century is generally open to each of its regional, vernaculare literatures. The paper illustrates this fact by two epic poems: Christian Schesaeus' Ruinae Pannonicae and Heinrich Porius' Iter Byzantinum. It argues that they cannot fully be understood without considering their relationship to the Hungarian poems of Sebastian Tinodi and the German tradition of "Newe Zeyttungen".
