    Open AccessG Hugo Tucker, Peter Morfeld et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2021

    Total mortality and “burden of disease” in Germany and Italy and their states and regions were explored during the first COVID-19 wave by using publicly available data for 16 German states and 20 Italian regions from January 2016 to June 2020. Based on expectations from 2016 to 2019, simplified Standardized Mortality Ratios (SMRs) for deaths occurring in the first half of 2020 and the effect of changed excess mortality in terms of “burden of dise…

  • (Un)masking the Realities of Power

    Erik De Bom, Marijke Janssens et al.BOOK(Un)masking the realities of power2011

    If Justus Lipsius’s Politica of 1589 and its importance to the history of political thought needs no introduction, Lipsius's Monita et exempla politica (1605), conceived as a sequel to the Politica, has been overlooked time and again despite the fact that it is a unique key to understand the precise character of Lipsius's political thought. For, is his widely read political dialogue a Neostoic discourse or is it Tacitean, Machiavellian, or even a…

    G Hugo Tucker, Yvonne BellengerARTICLERenaissance and Reformation2003

    In the end, Jowitt's book provides its readers with well-researched, nuanced arguments, which attend to both its primary texts and the recent critical discourses on early modern travel narrative as a genre.While the sharp division in the book between Elizabethan and Jacobean plays may occasionally make some of her arguments sound a little repetitive (it might have been interesting, instead, to highlight some of the more subtle similarities and di…

  • The Poet's Odyssey

    G Hugo TuckerBOOKThe poet's odyssey1990

    This title traces the artistic development of one of the major poets of the French Renaissance, Joachim Du Bellay (1522–60), showing how he differed from his contemporaries (in particular his great rival Ronsard) and the importance of his move to Rome in 1553. In this unique study of Du Bellay and his Antiquitez de Rome, Dr Tucker makes this complex sonnet sequence more accessible to the modern reader, highlighting its rich intertextual framework…

  • The End of All

    G Hugo TuckerCHAPTERThe poet's odyssey1990

    While Marie de La Haye's eulogistic ode was used as an introductory poem to one of De Bellay's many writings, de La Haye's evaluation regarding the quality of De Bellay's and Ronsard's prominence in the field of poetics is found to be contrasting with Du Bellay's less enthusiastic epître-préface and his other poetic collections that followed. However, in Antiquitez de Rome, we observe how Du Bellay is able to further develop and fulfil this contr…
