Dynamics of Neo-Latin and the Vernacular

Tom Deneire, Ph.D. (2009), Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, researched (Neo-)Latin epistolography and stylistics at that university, and participated in an NWO-project on bilingual humanist poetry at the Huygens ING (The Hague). He is currently employed as Curator of the Special Collections Department of Antwerp University Library.

"...One of the great strengths of the book is that it brings together thought-provoking studies that involve different approaches, different vernaculars, and different eras in the Neo-Latin period...a stimulating read for those interested in multilingual early modern Europe."Thomas Hendrickson (Dartmouth College), Renaissance Quarterly, Volume LXIX, No. 1
