Abraham Cowley’s 1656 Poems
Among the most glaring Cowley critical lacunae is his Latin writing. Victoria Moul, in this chapter, helps to remedy this by locating Cowley’s Latin literary output within its context. Her focus is on the ways in which the Latin poems printed in the Poems of 1656, not least the dedicatory poem preceding the preface, respond to the wider literary and political culture of the times. A disjunction between Cowley’s Latin poetic and English prose voic…

The date of Marvell’s Hortus
A post-Restoration dating of Marvell’s poem The Garden and its Latin companion piece “Hortus” to around 1668 has been generally accepted in recent criticism, despite some counter-arguments from those who defend the traditional dating to Marvell’s period at Nun Appleton (1650–2). None of these analyses, however, have attempted to date the Latin rather than the English poem. This article offers a new dating of “Hortus” to around 1654, during Marvel…
Hunting with Hounds in Neo-Latin
This chapter explores the wide-ranging imitation and appropriation of Grattius in Europe during the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries following the rediscovery of the text in the early years of the sixteenth century. Particular attention is focused on Giovanni Darcio’s poem, Canes (1543), Girolamo Fracastoro’s poem, Alcon (attested from at least 1555), and Jacques Vanière’s version of the Cynegetica in the sixteenth and final book of his magi…

Revising the siege of York
This is the first article dedicated to Payne (or Fitzpayne) Fisher (1615/6–1693), Cromwell’s forgotten laureate, who had a successful career as a Latin poet during the short-lived English Commonwealth (1649–1653) and Protectorate (1653–1659). The article examines in detail the four surviving versions of Fisher’s breakthrough success, the long Latin poem Marston Moor, first published in print in 1650, with a revised edition in 1656, but circulated…

Jonson, Horace and the Classical Tradition
The influence of the Roman poet Horace on Ben Jonson has often been acknowledged, but never fully explored. Discussing Jonson's Horatianism in detail, this study also places Jonson's densely intertextual relationship with Horace's Latin text within the broader context of his complex negotiations with a range of other 'rivals' to the Horatian model including Pindar, Seneca, Juvenal and Martial. The new reading of Jonson's classicism that emerges i…
Translation As Commentary? The Case of Ben Jonson’s Ars Poetica
This article is a brief attempt to consider some of the ways in which Jonson’s neglected translation of Horace’s Ars Poetica—a project to which he returned over many years—is worthy of consideration as a major work of translation; a translation, moreover, which in its departures from and contention with the Latin text emerges as a kind of commentary. The reading of Horace that appears, as it were, from between the lines of Horace’s own text itsel…
