Die Stiftung von Autorschaft in der neulateinischen Literatur (ca. 1350-ca. 1650)

This monograph throws new light on the question of authorship in the Latin literature of the early modern period. It shows that authorship was not something to be taken for granted in an empathic sense, but was chiefly to be found in the paratextual features of works – the dedication, preface, author’s portrait and so on.
