In this volume, Eobanus Hessus turns from passionate Erasmian into staunch defender of Luther, only to find himself caught in the no-man’s-land between the two titans. Under Erasmus’ spell, he writes 'Itinerary of My Journey to Erasmus,' 'On the Restoration of Studies at Erfurt,' epigrams against Edward Lee, and 'Short Preface to the 'Enchiridion.'' Changing course in 1521, he publishes 'Elegies in Praise and Defense of Luther' and 'Letter of the Afflicted Church to Luther.' Thereafter, amid tumults and academic collapse, he battles the radical preachers in 'Some Letters of Illustrious Men Concerning the More Humane Studies' and 'Three Dialogues.' Two elegies serve as intermezzos: a 'Consolation' to the imprisoned William of Brunswick and a patriotic 'Invective' against Johannes Dantiscus.

Hailed as “King of Poets” by Johann Reuchlin in 1514, Eobanus Hessus (1488–1540) was eager to build on his fame with a stream of new works: “Easter Hymn,” “On True Nobility,” “On the Avoidance of Drunkenness,” “Response from His Majesty Maximilian” (answering Hutten’s “Letter from Italia”), and the short epic “Christ’s Victory over the Underworld,” as well as a hitherto unknown “Inaugural Lecture” on Cicero and Plautus. In 1515 he anonymously published a mock-quodlibetical speech that applies the scholastic method of argumentation to “The Species of Drunkards.” Eobanus’ first bestseller, this brilliant satire was reprinted well into the eighteenth century. All of these texts are included in the present volume, along with annotated translations, ground-breaking introductions, and commentary.
