List of Neo-Latin authors
This is a list of authors writing fiction, in prose or poetry, in a Neo-Latin idiom, highlighted by academics working in Neo-Latin studies as outstanding or important for their contribution to poetry, Latitinity, drama, or other prose. They are often the focus of current research in that field.
Neo-Latin was the first major international, standardised linguistic vehicle for printed works in Europe, and the dominant medium for academic and religious discourse during the sixteenth and start of the seventeenth century. As an international language, Neo-Latin authors often knew the works of contemporaries in other countries, as well as having common cultural references, through both Classical Roman and Greek texts, and later Christian works. While many Neo-Latin authors and works are less well known now, study of their works is important to understand the development of science, literature and vernacular literary cultures.
Neo-Latin literature and its notable authors are explored and identified in a number of standard reference works.[1]
