Halsted, David G.: Poetry and politics in the Silesian baroque

Neo-stoicism in the work of Christophorus Colerus and his circle. This study describes the impact of neo-Stoicism on the cultural and educational institutions of Breslau in the first half of the seventeenth century, using the career and work of Christophorus Colerus, a poet and teacher of rhetoric, to demonstrate how politics informed poets and poetry, and how poets and poetry in turn informed politics. 272 Seiten, gebunden (Wolfenbütteler Arbeiten zur Barockforschung; Band 26/Harrassowitz Verlag 1996)
