LEBEAU, Jean
Salvator mundi. L' "Exemple" de Joseph dans le Théâtre allemand au XVIe siècle. Nieuwkoop, 1977. 8vo. Cloth. With 32 illustrations. 2 volumes. XV, 1134 pp
The theme of Joseph (Genesis 37-50) was immensely popular during the sixteenth century, and flourished especially in contemporary German Theatre. This comprehensive analysis offers a complete parnorama of the social, economical and political realities of the period, emphasizing the religious and pedagogical ideals of the Renaissance. I. Un thème et une époque - Analyse spectrale d'un "Exemple". II. Notes, Références et Annexes. Contains a mine of bio-bibliographical information. "What is so admirable here, indeed enviable, is the skill with which the potentially confusing mass of information is integrated into the work ... The bibliography reads like a shelf-list of the ideal German Renaissance reference library. The biographical sketches burst with valuable information ... This work cannot be recommended too highly. It belongs in every Renaissance collection" (Frank L. Borchardt in Renaissance Quarterly XXXII,1, 1979).

PUTTIGER, H.P.M
Georgius Macropedius' Asotus. Een Neolatijns drama over de Verloren Zoon door Joris van Lanckvelt. Tekst met inleiding, vertaling en commentaar. Nieuwkoop, 1988. 8vo. Cloth. With 5 illustrations. 280 pp. (Bibliotheca Humanistica & Reformatorica, Vol. XLII)
With a summary in English. The first of Macropedius' writings is the Asotus (1537), a biblical drama of the Prodigal Son. Numerous passages, derived from Erasmus' adaptation of the Vulgata (1516) prove that the author has revised a first concept (1507-1510) of this drama. "Puttiger's outstanding philological spadework and his readable Dutch prose translation of the drama will ensure that this edition of Asotus will remain the standard for a long time" (James A. Parente, Jr. in Neo-Latin News XXXVIII,1-2, 1990). "... large, thoroughly documented and elaborate study... This is a new step towards the complete disclosure of the fascinating works of an attractive author" (Frank Leys in Wolfenbütteler Renaissance Mitteilungen XIII,1, 1989).

SENGER, Matthias Wilhelm

The five German plays by Leonhard Culmann (c. 1500-1561), originally published between 1539 and 1547, are typical in quality and structure for much of the dramatic production of the time. This is a text-edition of same, preceded by an extensive biography and followed by a voluminous apparatus of notes on the texts. A full bibliography is appended. "Das Buch ist grosszügig angelegt ... Es ist eine feine Arbeit, die in die reformatorische Welt des Schulwesens führt" (Hans-Joachim König in Blätter für Württembergische Kirchengeschichte 1983-'84). "In this virtual Culmannus redivivus the author has made a major contribution to sixteenth-century literary studies as well as provided an exacting model for similar endeavors" (Peter Schaeffer in Renaissance Quarterly 36,2, 1983).
