It was according to Brunet actually published in Paris by Barbou. He does not explain but the printer's mark paper printing and layout looks indeed very Barbou. The Short Title Catalogue Netherlands STCN is not sure either about Leiden it adds 'printed in France' § In Latin elegiac and epigrammatic poetry from Roman times to the Renaissance there is constant reference to the 'poetry of youth' as 'standing in contrast to a kind of poetry suitable to be written in old age. The poets characterize the latter poetry as serious moral and austere touching on wars and politics and patriotism. The former is filled with passion and exuberance concerned not with weighty national issues but with jokes and laughter and erotic affaires'. K.M. Summers 'The Iuvenilia of Marc-Antoine Muret' Columbus 2006 p. XXV-XXVI § The first edition of 'poemata juvenilia' of the young Calvinist theologian Theodore de Bèze or Theodorus Beza 1519-1605 was published in Paris in 1548. 'It had certain rather free pieces printed which were afterwards made a matter of bitter reproach against him. He therefore suppresed them in the following editions'. Ebert This first edition including the erotic love poems which Beza later regretted having ever published was clandestinely reprinted. Beza was considered to be among the best Neo-Latin poets of his time. He is however best known for his Latin translation of the New Testament his critical Greek edition of the New Testament and for being the founder of the University of Geneva. § The Frenchman Marc Antoine Muret latinized as Marcus Antonius Muretus 1526-1585 'exemplifies the essence of French Renaissance humanism. A master of Latin and student of Classical Antiquity he not only engaged in the recovery and exposition of ancient texts he also actively employed the old genres and skills in the contemporary ecclesiastical and public spheres. He wrote Latin poetry both sacred and profane delivered public orations in Latin and lectured in various schools throughout France and Italy on authors as diverse as Catullus and Tacitus and on topics as varied as Greek philosophy and Roman law'. K.M. Summers 'The Iuvenilia of Marc-Antoine Muret' Columbus 2006 p. XIII His 'Iuveninlia' were first published in 1552. § The Dutch neolatin poet Janus Secundus Nicolai Hagiensis was born on the 15th of november 1511 the day of the martyr Secundus in The Hague. He died very young in 1536. In 1528 he moved to Mechelen the residence of the Austrian vicequeen Margaretha of Parma. The southern part of the Netherlands was in this time the center of a florishing urban civilization. In May 1530 Secundus met a young prostitute from Mechelen called Julia and fell in love with her. Julia became the subject of his first book of elegies his 'Julia Monobiblos' in which he tells how he won and lost his love. During his studies in Bourges under the famous jurist Alciati he wrote his first 'Basia'. Alciati introduced Secundus there also to the newest Italian poetry. A humanist poet often started his career with erotic poetry like Piccolomini and Beza. Secundus' 'kiss-poems' are a variation on two 'kiss-poems' of the Latin poet Catullus ca. 84-54 B.C who became during the Renaissance a model for love-poetry. Secundus wrote in his short life 6835 lines of poetry of which only 425 lines were printed during his lifetime. He wrote 'with equal fluency all kinds of lyrical heroic and elegiac verse. Down to the present day Secundus lives in literary history as the kissing poet' . 'Until far in the 18th century Secundus is mentioned as one of the classics of love poetry' IJsewijn Companion to Neo-Latin studies I Leuven 1990 p. 152 The first edition of his collected works was posthumely published in 1541 in Utrecht and was edited by Secundus brother Marius. § After the poems of Janus Secundus we find 46 pages with the 'Pancharis Joan. Bonefonii Averni ad Jacobum Guellium p. 111-156 Provenance: On the verso of the front flyleaf: 'John Wordsworth Edinburgh 1827'. This is the English classical scholar John Wordsworth 1805-1839 nephew of the Romantic poet William Wordsworth. 'In October 1824 he entered Trinity College Cambridge. His university career was distinguished. In 1825 he obtained the Bell scholarship in 1826 a scholarship at his own college and was second for the Porson prize; in 1827 he obtained it. In 1828 he proceeded to the B.A. degree but was disqualified for classical honours through distaste for mathematics. In 1830 he was elected fellow of his college. . In 1834 he was appointed a classical lecturer in Trinity College and undertook to edit Richard Bentley's Correspondence afterwards completed by his brother Christopher Wordsworth'.

9785Newark VT: Janus Press 2016. Wrappers. Fine binding. Quarto. 114 pp. frontis. illus. Limited edition one of 120 numbered copies. Signed by Hulme and Van Vliet. Bound using a woven strip binding designed by Claire Van Vliet; the covers are a dynamic pulp-painting with a vitreograph frontispiece with five additional illustrations that were digitally composed by Van Vliet and are original archival inkjet prints on handmade paper; these seem to blend photography and Van Vliet's pulp painting creating a striking and textured result. This is accompanied by a small octavo glossary with eight letterpress pages and fold-out photograph. All laid into a clamshell box of paper boards with acrylic-painted fore-edge and moon inset on the spine; map of Moeraki mounted inside the upper cover; maple and tamarack sides. Housed in slipcase with printed title label. A fine copy. <br /> <br /> Among the most ambitious projects of the press it is one of the largest at 114 pages and the longest projects of the Press taking 20 years from contact to completion. Each of the 6 "Conversations" are printed on different handmade papers many of which have varying leaf sizes. The poetry by Booker Prize-winning author of Bone People Keri Hulme rewards attention and patience. Similarly Van Vliet's books require more attention from the reader and Silences is no exception. For instance in one "conversation" she varies the page size and relationship—some leaves being half-page strips on the lower portion of the book can be paged through while sequences of cutouts and illustrations along the top remain are turned less frequently creating a constancy. Even the form of the book can be altered: the page-spread illustrations for instance can be pulled forward at the inner fold making what was two dimensional into three-dimensional. One can do this with all the illustrations simultaneously creating what Van Vliet describes in her Notes for Press Patrons "a three dimensional wagon wheel display." This book is a beautiful choreography between text image and form—all elements in harmony. Buchtel John A. The Art of Paper: Claire Van Vliet and the Janus Press: Papermaking Collaborations 2024.
