Die Zeit der Herrschaft Karls V. (1519-1556) fällt mit einer Blüte des europäischen Renaissance-Humanismus zusammen. Karls Darstellung in der Literatur, insbesondere der neulateinischen Literatur, ist bisher aber nur wenig erforscht. Dieser Band möchte mit einer Reihe von Fallstudien einen Beitrag zur Schließung dieser Forschungslücke leisten.Le règne de Charles Quint (1519-1556) est l''un des terrains les plus favorables à l''expansion européenne de l''humanisme. Cependant, la représentation de l''empereur dans la littérature, en particulier néo-latine, n''a pas encore recue toute l''attention qu''elle mérite. Par une série d''études de cas, ce volume contribue à une connaissance plus approfondie du mythe impérial.

Every third year, the members of the International Association for Neo-Latin Studies (IANLS) assemble for a week-long conference. Over the years, this event has evolved into the largest single conference in the field of Neo-Latin studies. The papers presented at these conferences offer, then, a general overview of the current status of Neo-Latin research; its current trends, popular topics, and methodologies. In 2018, the members of IANLS gathered for a conference in Albacete (Spain) on the theme of “Humanity and Nature: Arts and Sciences in Neo-Latin Literature”. This volume presents the conference’s papers which were submitted after the event and which have undergone a peer-review process. The papers deal with a broad range of fields, including literature, history, philology, and religious studies.

Japan on the Jesuit Stage offers a comprehensive overview of the representations of Japan in early modern European Neo-Latin school theater. The chapters in the volume catalog and analyze representative plays which were produced in the hundreds all over Europe, from the Iberian Peninsula to present-day Croatia and Poland.Taking full account of existing scholarship, but also introducing a large amount of previously unknown primary material, the contributions by European and Japanese researchers significantly expand the horizon of investigation on early modern European theatrical reception of East Asian elements and will be of particular interest to students of global history, Neo-Latin, and theater studies.
