Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Companion to Central and Eastern European Humanism: The Czech Lands  is the first English-language reference work on this region’s Humanists and their literary activities. It provides biographical and bibliographical data about humanist literary life between c. 1480 and 1630, in two volumes, organised alphabetically by author. This volume completes the set, the first Companion  having been published in 2020. This concluding part contains more than 130 biographical entries covering authors from M to Z, as well as a comprehensive overview of the most recent research on humanism in Central Europe. The interdisciplinary research team behind this Companion  has paid particular attention to local approaches to the classical tradition, to humanist multilingualism and to Bohemian and Moravian authors’ participation in European scholarly networks. The Companion  is a vital resource for all academics interested in humanism and the history of early modern literature in Central Europe.
