Nights in Flanders. Joseph Alfred Bradney, Latin Poet of the Great War
It is a little-known fact that during the Great War of 1914-1918 a handful of people wrote war poetry in Latin. Not from the safety of their book-laden desks, but very much with their boots in the mud. The most prolific of these Latin war poets was Colonel Sir Joseph Alfred Bradney (1859-1923), who in 1919 even published a booklet Noctes Flandricae or Nights in Flanders with war poetry written in Belgium and France. This book tells the story of both his Latin poetry and his involvement in the Great War.
Eros et Priapus
Les humanistes et les poètes de la Renaissance s'approprient le discours érotique de l'Antiquité pour le transformer en une érotologie littéraire et artistique. Issus d'un colloque (Cambridge 1995), ces essais cherchent à relancer le débat sur le traitement de l'érotisme, de ses images et de ses lieux communs, de l'admiration quasi platonicienne à l'obscénité.

The Early Modern Cultures of Neo-Latin Drama
'From ca. 1300 a new genre developed in European literature, Neo-Latin drama. Building on medieval drama, vernacular theatre and classical drama, it spread around Europe. It was often used as a means to educate young boys in Latin, in acting and in moral issues. Comedies, tragedies and mixed forms were written. The Societas Jesu employed Latin drama in their education and public relations on a large scale. They had borrowed the concept of this drama from the humanist and Protestant gymnasia, and perfected it to a multi media show. However, the genre does not receive the attention that it deserves. In this volume, a historical overview of this genre is given, as well as analyses of separate plays.'--From publisher's website.
