About this book
The story
"Providing the first edited text, translation and commentary of two Renaissance dream-narrative satires, this edition sheds light on the period's literary history and reception of classical texts.
Cleophilus' De coetu poetarum(first printed 1483-1485) and Iustus Lipsius' Somnium (first printed 1581) are both framed as dreams in which their authors encounter ancient authors and compare ancient literary works to the deplorable state of literature in their own times"-- Provided by publisher.
