The Poetic Works of Helius Eobanus Hessus : Volume 7: Notes to Volume 6: The Fruits of Autumn /
:
Volume 7 is a companion to the preceding volume, "The Fruits of Autumn." As such, it offers a rich trove of explanatory and philological notes on all the poetic texts presented there. Headnotes to individual sections provide information on meter and, as needed, on genre, tradition, historical and personal background, as well as on earlier editions, translations, and interpretations. A special focus is the documentation of ancient, medieval, and early modern sources and textual parallels (similia). A List of Abbreviations, Index of Medieval and Renaissance Words, Glossarial Index, and General Index round out this volume.

The Poetic Works of Helius Eobanus Hessus : Volume 6: The Fruits of Autumn, 1528-1539 /
:
This cornucopia of poetic fruits from Hessus's autumn opens with "On the Tumults of These Times" (1528), meditating on the Peasant War and the Sack of Rome, and exhortations to Emperor Charles V to heal Germany's traumas and defeat the Turks (1530). Next are the masterpieces, "Epicedia" (1531), mourning famous contemporaries; the urban praise "Nuremberg Illuminated" (1532); and three books of Christian "Heroides" (1532), updated to reflect Lutheran teaching. The collection concludes with three dirges, a panegyric of Landgrave Philip's victory in Württemberg (1534), an "Elegy on Slander" for Melanchthon (1538), and an "Epithalamion" for the Marburg jurist Justus Studaeus (1539).
