To begin with, as we are told in the introduction, the author limits the scope of his investigations to (1) the early Renaissance Italian literary theories and philosophical statements on poetical inspiration; and (2) the treatment of the topos of inspiration by the German Neo-Latin poets from the end of the fifteenth through the end of the sixteenth century.
In conclusion, this is a publication whose relevance transcends the figure of Albornoz and will be of interest to Renaissance scholars, particularly those concerned with historiography and neo-Latin prose.
Readers who enjoy early modern letters, not to mention those professionally concerned with Agricola and Neo-Latin philology, will find this volume worthwhile.
